Basically unused template, used on only one page, and almost certainly can't be used anywhere else Helloimahumanbeing (talk) 18:24, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Subst & delete, or just delete. No need for this to be a template. PC78 (talk) 18:29, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This template intricately employs XHTML syntax that can only clutter the main article source. Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 23:31, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's only used on one page, and, in my opinion, shouldn't even be used on said page. Even if it clutters the page's source, it shouldn't be kept as a template. Helloimahumanbeing (talk) 19:45, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • And there is no reason for all that extra HTML clutter. See my sandbox for a version where {{multiple image}} is used directly. Voila! Decluttered. -- Whpq (talk) 23:31, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - The two images can be inserted without all the table clutter. -- Whpq (talk) 23:57, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - images should be in article, not in template. --Gonnym (talk) 08:54, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Subst and delete Single-use templates are not permitted. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:57, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:IMDB refimprove[edit]

The result of the discussion was Turn into template disambiguation page after proper replacement of current transclusions. (non-admin closure) --Trialpears (talk) 08:15, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Previously a redirect to {{Media IMDb refimprove}} but was converted to a template by an anon user about a year ago. Problem is that we also have {{BLP IMDb refimprove}} and {{BLP IMDb-only refimprove}} so simply restoring the redirect is not straightforward as the tilte is ambiguous and the template is used on a mix of articles. Perhaps we need a template dab page? PC78 (talk) 09:49, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - to be honest, that tag is completely useless as it states that an unreliable source is used. Instead of adding a cleanup template, just remove the source and either remove the sentence or add {{Citation needed}}. This is also relevant to {{BLP IMDb refimprove}}. Unlike {{BLP IMDb-only refimprove}} which is actually relevant as it states that the only source in the article is IMDB. --Gonnym (talk) 12:14, 17 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • replace and turn into a template-dab like {{IMDb}}. Frietjes (talk) 17:02, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
