- Oh that’s my bad. It was supposed to be used both at its own base template and at Template:Infobox film awards/style (like many of the others at the latter). Issue was just deciding whether to use #ABCDEF or #dcc09b before implementing. I can happily resolve by transcluding to at least at one of the two. — HTGS (talk) 22:08, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

- Delete per nom. A night-only template for this line doesn't seem to be needed right now. This might have been useful prior to 2016, when the BMT Fourth Avenue Line had a substantially separate service pattern at night and during the day, but this purpose is now served by other templates like Template:NYCS Fourth south. However, this template could be recreated if the need arises. – Epicgenius (talk) 13:51, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was merge to a singular template. There is a general consensus that convenience templates help the editor more than it hinders them.

Merge to a single template, {{AFLW}}, which uses a simple switch statement. There is zero reason to have a dozen templates when one is just as easy to use, and easier to maintain. The merge is trivial, simply replacing a space with a pipe, as shown in this edit. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:24, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep – is this really necessary? Just creates a whole lot of work, especially if applied project-wide to other similar templates as well, and I don't understand how one template would necessarily be "easier to maintain" when the existing templates are just as easy to edit. A final decision/consensus hasn't been reached at this discussion yet either, so feel like Jonesey95's jumped the gun here. We've got a system that works; if it ain't broke... 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 17:04, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- I don't see how it creates more work. With one template, there should be less work in the long run, and it will be trivially easy to add more name options, like "Melbourne" instead of just "Mel", which makes the template easier to use for editors. The merge itself will be done by willing TFD gnomes, and it will take only a few minutes. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:21, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- We don't need to do anything like add more name options/variations; this just feels like a personal preference. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 09:34, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- It is not my personal preference; it is that of editors who create redirects like {{AFLW Bri}}. Those will no longer be necessary. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:42, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- The editors who work on the project have the preference for {{AFLW Bri}} etc, while you who has no connection to the project has a preference for {{AFLW}} (which again is your invention and that name should actually redirect to {{AFL Women's}}). Whose preference do you think is more important? --SuperJew (talk) 13:06, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

- Merge – these templates must not be used in cs1|2 templates because the rendering in the citation misleads the reader.
- This one is taken from Olivia Levicki (
{{AFLW PA}}
has been replaced with its expansion for clarity):{{cite web|url=https://www.portadelaidefc.com.au/news/1145063/switching-codes-levicki-joins-port|title=Switching codes: Levicki joins Port|publisher=[[Telstra]]|work=[[Port Adelaide Football Club (AFL Women's)|Port Adelaide]]|date=8 June 2022}}
- "Switching codes: Levicki joins Port". Port Adelaide. Telstra. 8 June 2022.
|work=
should not be an easter egg. Port Adelaide is visually indistinguishable from Port Adelaide. Usually when a template should not be used in cs1|2 templates, we add{{COinS safe|n}}
to the offending template's documentation. In this case,{{COinS safe|n}}
is not appropriate so some other template must used or newly created. As these templates do not have any documentation (shame, shame, shame) that too will needs be created for nineteen more-or-less templates. One template, one documentation page, one don't-use-this-template-in-citations notice. Need another AFLW xxx link? Don't create a new template, add the wikilink to{{AFLW}}
, plus a minimal amount of associated documentation, and you're done.- —Trappist the monk (talk) 19:55, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

- You have given examples of your issues with the WP:TFD process but you did not answer my question. Why not?
- —Trappist the monk (talk) 00:57, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- I appreciate that you're not answering questions by deflecting that someone isn't answering your question. But to answer your efficiency question - the template {{AFLW}} should be a redirect to {{AFL Women's}} - you just got "lucky" that the league is relatively new and that redirect hadn't been created yet. Which means that to have a single template will need something like {{AFLW team}} and then we'll also need time to turn over everything on the project, also editors will have to relearn this, and even after that it'll still be less efficient as it's twice the length. I've been through this story with the {{A-League team}} template and even now I curse the day of the change (and also btw to add a new team is much more annoying than creating a new template as it would be done on the current setup on AFLW). --SuperJew (talk) 01:51, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- or look at this for another example of the disruption this is causing. --SuperJew (talk) 23:17, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- These are more efficient, because they are consistent across leagues. For example, you can't easily make a single {{WAFL}} solution, as that is aleady in use for a navbox. So the project-wide solution becomes messy. The-Pope (talk) 01:11, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- This is an aside; other league templates come next. Template names like {{WAFL}} are editor-unfriendly names that violate the template guideline that says
Template function should be clear from the template name
, so they should be moved. That's a different discussion, though, which can be had later. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:35, 15 September 2024 (UTC)- You obviously have a problem with it on a project level. So why not have the discussion on the project level? Which as Pope says, will be messy as a whole solution. Also on the specific league, the template {{AFLW}} should be a redirect to {{AFL Women's}} - you just got "lucky" that the league is relatively new and that redirect hadn't been created yet. Also, I have to ask, have you ever edited anything in the WP:AFL scope? Do you have any connection to footy? --SuperJew (talk) 01:47, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- And here is the kicker. "
Template function should be clear from the template name
". So you've just invalidated that by creating {{AFLW}} whose function isn't at all clear from the template name. Right? I mean it could be anything do do with AFLW. Will you therefore try to force us to use the not very convenient "shortcut" but fully compliant template title of something like {{Australian rules football club editor assistance shortcut|league=AFLW|club=WB}} instead of {{AFLW WB}}? Please just WP:IAR and get out of the way to let us continue being efficient and useful and helpful and here to build an encyclopedia, not demand changes on others. The-Pope (talk) 05:48, 15 September 2024 (UTC)- Hear, hear; it really just feels like a personal preference is being pushed on the project for no real added benefit. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 09:34, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- Nothing has been invalidated. I made {{AFLW}} to demonstrate how easy it is to use this new template and convert articles to using it (replacing a space with a pipe character). Of course that name should be a redirect, which the template guideline explicitly allows, and the template itself should have a readable name. That step can be done later. A project-wide discussion is fine with me; there are many templates in the project that have unreadable, editor-unfriendly names, and they would benefit from a comprehensive, consistent naming scheme. All of that is outside the scope of this TFD, however. – Jonesey95 (talk) 12:47, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

- Comment Echoing 4TheWynne's comment above, can we close this one without prejudice for now and have the discussion at Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2024_September_13#WAFL_link_templates and Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2024_September_13#WAFLW_link_templates. I'm in favour of Jonesey95's proposed merged template for the reasons stated here, but opening a third parallel discussion here and starting it with a different premise/justification to the other two is triplicating the effort we need to get to a consensus. Aspirex (talk) 21:15, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment Just from a completeness standpoint, you missed Template:AFLW Ade from the nomination. Aspirex (talk) 21:41, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- Fixed. Thank you for that helpful comment. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:36, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- comment agree with Aspirex that having the same discussion in 3 locations is not helpful and won't come up with the best solution. Close all 3 down, WP:TROUT the nominators, discuss it at WP:AFL, identify the best solution(s), implement them, then delete the unused old templates if the single template outcome is preferred. The-Pope (talk) 00:53, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Is there any reason ‹See Tfd› needs to be added at the front of every time this template is used? Makes the articles very hard to read. Not sure if this a technical thing or was just added to this one to notify editors. MarkiPoli (talk) 16:11, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- I definitely agree that it's extremely annoying, especially when it comes to articles like 2024 AFL Women's season that I'm trying to maintain (where it appears everywhere) and countless player articles, etc. that we WP:AFL editors are working on. Admins, is there anything that we're waiting on/any reason why we can't close this? Fair bit of pushback against merging the templates, both here and at the WAFL/W discussions. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 17:12, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- It's been nearly two weeks since the other threads were closed... could we please have a resolution, someone? In any case, {{AFLW BL}}, {{AFLW Kan}} and (not listed) {{AFLW Nor}} should be deleted, as these are/were redirects that now don't have any transclusions, but I'm still strongly advocating for the rest to be kept and left alone/to just let us WP:AFL editors continue to use them the way we have been (except in cs1|2 templates as mentioned above, which only a couple of us do and we'll try to clean up as much as possible), and for the same approach to apply to other similar templates across the project. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 16:34, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
