Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Template/[edit]

As discussed here, this seems like an obsolete, out-of-date page which has not been flagged as historical. It also seems like the current template page covers everything that has been here, rendering this page effectively useless. In addition, I do not see keeping this page as "backups" is useful at all if it's not going to be used for that purpose. MuZemike (talk) 06:29, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I stated most of my reasons in that discussion. The gist of it is that I think it should be deleted as it is purely superfluous. The current template page covers just about everything on that page and is far more up to date as well. I see no value in retaining the history either, as it is pretty much adding these "backup" templates to the page. --.:Alex:. 10:57, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I created this page back when we were trying to come up with a video game infobox. We've had a completed one for quite a while now. This temporary work page can be deleted now. — Frecklefσσt | Talk 12:44, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Since the most relevant history is already kept at the Template:Infobox VG history, this page appears to serve little purpose. Deleting will prevent editors from stumbling across this stray page and trying to engage in discussion at a defunct talk page. (Guyinblack25 talk 22:54, 29 July 2008 (UTC))[reply]
  • Comment: Should Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Template//Experiment be added to this deletion as well? (Guyinblack25 talk 22:56, 29 July 2008 (UTC))[reply]
    • Yes, and delete - superfluous. There's not much value to keeping completely obsolete history around. It's just a temporary page has since become useless. Randomran (talk) 19:32, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • It looks like this page was never added to the main MFD page. I've just placed it there. Pagrashtak 15:04, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I was one of the people involved in designing the video game template. This page up for deletion was created as a 'common sandbox' for our efforts, and since it is no longer needed it is best deleted. --ShaunMacPherson (talk) 09:54, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete serves no purpose.--RadianSeize (talk) 01:28, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Useless. --MrStalker (talk) 11:09, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Redundant, the project's template was recently given a lot of time by some editors to make it more streamlined and consistent with other templates, we've gone past the point where this might be needed. Someoneanother 01:44, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
