Portions of template are redundant of Template:Beyoncé_Knowles_singles. In addition, the portions that aren't could easily fit into the template. | helpdןǝɥ | 23:10, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Delete - Same information that can be written in Template:Beyoncé Knowles singles and Template:Beyoncé Knowles. No need to share the information, two templates is sufficient. This version does not add any information for articles. Lucas Brígido msg 00:44, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

- Keep - Out of the 15 songs found on 4, only four are singles. Nine other songs have their own articles. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 05:22, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
- Note: Most of the time (with the exception of the The Beatles and other artists with 7 or more studio albums and articles for most/all tracks) the songs can fit in the singles template in the "Other songs" group. What about this case? | helpdןǝɥ | 05:54, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

Yet another pointless navigation template. This one risks creating confusion between the Counsil of Europe and the European Union, whilst selectively listing certain institutions (and informal gatherings) of both. — Blue-Haired Lawyer t 20:19, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Unused hardcoded geography infobox. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:40, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Hardcoded template used only at South India. Should be replaced with a standard inline geography infobox. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:39, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Unused, even at the parent article. A bit of a grab-bag of semirelated topics in a format predating navbox standardisation. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:38, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Unused. Appears to have been superseded by more specific templates, as listing every TV channel in South Asia is probably rather excessive for one navbox. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:36, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Comment this is not a navbox the entire navbox is in a "noinclude" section. The only thing this does is:
Channels in {{tl|{{PAGENAME}}}} need to be split up per language into multiple templates. This template should not be transcluded directly
- Delete this template makes no sense the way it is currently written. It's been written this way since 2007! 76.65.128.198 (talk) 06:08, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

- See last month's TfD. It appears that though said TfD didn't come to a consensus, work has been done to orphan this in favour of {{intellectual property activism}}, which seems to have been the right choice. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:24, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

- Merge with Template:Orders of magnitude (length) wide, and let editors select which one to use based on a switch. It serves the same purpose. 76.65.128.198 (talk) 06:15, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

- Delete. Presumably meant to be substituted, but the #time parserfunction hasn't been made subst-friendly, so it is broken. This leads me to believe no-one is using it, so it can safely be deleted. — This, that, and the other (talk) 00:22, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

- The template is used in the article Orissa. It is in similar lines with Template:Kerala symbols. Hence, I have removed the Tfd tag from the template. -- Aarem (Talk) 08:17, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

I'm taking the unusual step of reopening this as it's still only used on a single article. We do not habitually move all table content to templatespace. {{Kerala symbols}} should be a co-nom. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 11:33, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

This is an excessively complicated FUR which has very low use because most software screenshots use either the general {{Non-free use rationale}} or in some rare cases {{Non-free image data}}. While one option would be to move software screenshots over, that would be time consuming, and there is nothing that this template would convey but a well filled out general Non-free use rationale would not convey.
In short this is a confusing and entirely redundant template.
If the consensus is for delete, I will personally ensure that the seven files currently using this (soon to be four) are converted properly. Sven Manguard Wha? 07:09, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- I can't see any compelling argument not to just use the standard FUR template here. The additional boilerplate about "not enabling users to create infringing copies of the software" is a little bizarre; it's difficult to come up with a situation where that would ever be possible from a screenshot.
