Music City Star templates

No remaining transclusions; replaced by {{Adjacent stations}} and Module:Adjacent stations/Music City Star. Mackensen (talk) 20:15, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not everything needs a navbox; three articles (including the main article) and a deleted category are insufficient for this to provide any use to readers. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 16:47, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Old orphaned metatemplate that was never used (see [1] in six years since its creation. Nowak Kowalski (talk) 15:13, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Module:Cslist with Module:List.
Modules sharing exact same function, except Module:List has more features. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 04:52, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support sounds like a sensible merge. --RexxS (talk) 12:32, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
On closer inspection it turns out that Module:List doesn't share exactly the same function in two ways: (1) it uses a hard-coded div to enclose the list, which causes problems with inline display; and (2) it uses inline CSS to style the lists, rather than using the much preferable WP:TemplateStyles. Unless the intention is to upgrade these features of Module:List at the time of the merger, it doesn't seem sensible to me to downgrade the functionality of Template:Cslist in an attempt to jam together two disparate modules. Here are the illustrations:
  • {{cslist | first item | second item | third item | etc}}
    • first item
    • second item
    • third item
    • etc
  • {{#invoke:List |horizontal | first item | second item | third item | etc}}
    • first item
    • second item
    • third item
    • etc
  • {{#invoke:List |horizontal |style="display:inline-block;" | first item | second item | third item | etc}}
    • first item
    • second item
    • third item
    • etc
Therefore Oppose for now. It would be nice to have modules that perform multiple functions, but not at the expense of losing functionality. --RexxS (talk) 13:28, 18 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:TCREEP for a 4th place-finish squad, as teams that did not earn a medal do not need the Wikipedia equivalent of a participation award. There is also prior consensus at discussions such as Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2016_December_29#Template:Slovenia_Squad_2010_FIBA_World_Championship. —Bagumba (talk) 07:53, 26 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
