Template:Infobox Extratropical Cyclone

Template:Infobox Extratropical Cyclone (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Template:Infobox Extratropical Cyclone 01A (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template is used on one article that contains original research and copyright violations. It incorporates a category system, which does not exist for extratropical cyclones, and has no real hope of being used on any other articles. Also nominating Template:Infobox Extratropical Cyclone 01A, as instead of using the original template, the creator made a separate template for the article in question. Coredesat talk. o_O 21:03, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Los Angeles USD

Template:Los Angeles USD (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template is already ugly and large. If it is completely populated with all of the schools in the Los Angeles Unified School District, there would be 1,035 total schools . This is a very good example of where a category (see Los Angeles Unified School District) or a list is much better than a template. This template should be deleted post-haste. 20:27, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:User AS400 CL

Template:User AS400 CL (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

New replacement outside of main template space is at {{User:UserBox/AS400-CL}}. — MrDolomite | Talk 20:19, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:False accuser

Template:False accuser (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Attack template - created with no community discussion or consensus - probably a speedy candidate SFC9394 19:52, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

A template created in order to counter false allegations of sockpuppetry. Orkadian 19:56, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Strong keep: I have suffered at the hands of false sockpuppetry accusations. (Indeed, User:Orkadian, above, has even been accused of being a sockpuppet of me!) It is one form of harassment that has put me off contributing to Misplaced Pages. This template certainly has my consensus! Mallimak 20:12, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

To other editors - please be aware this template has no consensus, policy, guideline or discussion to back it up - it was created unilaterally by Orkadian who has been engaging in a borderline harassment of another editor, and created to aid in that attack. Convenient that mailmark is back on the scene - just as one of Orkadian's templates is up for deletion. SFC9394 20:23, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Just to put everyone in the picture, I am not conveniently "back on the scene". User:Orkadian contacted me to tell me what is going on. He is sick to death of User:Mais oui!'s harassement. He had barely started out on Misplaced Pages when he was struck down with sockpuppet accusations from Mais oui! that he was me. I had received so much harassment from User:Mais oui! that I gave up contributing. (All my edits are monitored by Mais oui! and reverted.) There seems to be no defence against harassment on Misplaced Pages. I fully support Orkadian here. Mallimak 20:49, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
"User:Orkadian contacted me to tell me what is going on" - his contribs say he hasn't posted on your talk page in a week. Something doesn't add up. SFC9394 21:06, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages talk pages are not the only way in the universe to contact somebody! Mallimak 22:10, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Indeed there is - if I was wrongly accused of being a sock then the first thing I would do would be to not engage in unlogged communication with that person. This isn't the place for a sock discussion - but the editing patterns of both editors is highly suggestive of multiple accounts. Tonight Orkadian edits up to 20:56 - I put a template up for deletion - then 6 minutes later you are editing (after 3 days of not posting anything) and nothing more is heard from Orkadian for the evening. Indeed you post an afd notice on a user's talk page, , before you even post here. Why on earth would a user independent of Orkadian be posting such messages before even commenting on the deletion itself? TBH if you were sensible you would drop the sock - that would allow you to fight whatever battles you want here at WP (and god knows there are plenty of people who are here to do nothing but fight battles). Operating with socks is just going to lead to any point you try and make being completely undermined. SFC9394 22:33, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Question: are we going to have a "false accuser of false accusery" template too? ;) j/k I don't see this is any worse than the sockpuppet templat unless it is misused. Is it possible to put these in userspace and avoid upsetting people? FWIW, i'm not a fan of the sockpuppet template, it is OK at wiki to edit under one username as long as you don't use them both to advocate the same position or get around blocks, yet I see allegattions of "socks" whenever it is uncovered that one user uses different names.

  • Speedy delete. 20:41, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as an attack template. --Coredesat talk. o_O 21:07, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as an attack template. Either someone acted in good faith adding a Sockpuppet tag, in which case why attack them, or they have a habit of adding them on little or no evidence, in which case work with them and explain why this is a Bad Idea, or if they continue and are disruptive to the project, use dispute resolution, or if this is all they do for no reason, they're a bv and therefore ban them. This template is worse than useless; it exists only to attack and does not address the possible situations where this template might, by a hostile and childish person, be considered applicable. One puppy's opinion. KillerChihuahua 21:19, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Philippines

Template:Philippines (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template is 100% redundant with Template:Indy Philippine cities, Template:Metro Manila, and Template:Philippine regions. It's unnecessary, and I suggest it be deleted. --Coffee 15:21, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Usbob FC squad

Template:Usbob FC squad (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template is only being used by two members on their user pages. If they want to use it so much, they can use the coding on their pages instead. -- Mattythewhite 14:16, 10/9/06

Template:Wars of Israel

Template:Wars of Israel (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Out of date and nothing links here -- Kendrick7 10:10, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Israel-Lebanon conflict

Template:Infobox Israel-Lebanon conflict (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Just a single-article transclusion of {{Infobox Military Conflict}}; delete it like all the others. Kirill Lokshin 06:11, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Unproven sockpuppeteer

Template:Unproven sockpuppeteer (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

No reason ever to tag user accounts as being sockpuppets if it can't be proved. It looks like this would only be used for harrasment. PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 05:22, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

It's for the benefit of accused users, not to harrass them. The current template is being used for users that are not proven sockpuppeteers. This provides an alternative. Justforasecond 05:27, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
There is already Template:Sockpuppet for when there is a shred of evidence but not fully proven. --PinchasC | £€åV€ m€ å m€§§åg€ 05:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm. So there is a template that is used when it can't be proven? Why is the newer one more harrassing? It goes out of its way to assume good faith. Justforasecond 06:00, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Template:Hawaii_State_Highways

Template:Hawaii_State_Highways (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

These templates tend to be red link farms, and a list and category are much useful. (Although this needs to be checked against the current list before deletion, as it is inaccurate too). VA's got deleted, OR too... Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:47, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
