	{{Wilderness areas of Idaho map}}	20140829
	{{IAMilitary}} {{MNMilitary}}	20120722	Part of a "blah by U.S. state" series. Templates are currently "empty", so there's nowhere to transclude them at the moment. Keep an eye on them.
	{{Table Tennis in Serbia}}	20140816	Was blanked by a still-active editor in 2013. Is transcluded in one article. Have asked WikiProject Table tennis for advice
	{{BBHOH}}, {{BBNOM}}, {{BBPOV}}	20140902	Unused. Creator said they're designed to be subst'ed and they will add a note to that effect
49	{{Something just as insightful as MC Supersized is needed here}}	20140815	Is only used in one article (Ron English (artist)), but I don't understand why it's called what it's called
66	{{Guf's official page in VK}}	20140902	Unused. Fairly obviously an editing test.
68	{{Erica Dixon}}	20140902	Unused. Fairly obviously an editing test.

Wikipedia:Database reports/Templates containing links to disambiguation pages

Ones that are OK:

These templates	Which link to	Why
Lots of user templates	Example	The doc pages include {{Userspace linking templates}} which invokes {{Notable user|Example}} which links to Example
Several templates	Sailing vessel	The template doc includes a reference to the generic term, so a link to the dabpage is OK
Numerous template	Mass Rapid Transit	The template doc includes a reference to the generic term, so a link to the dabpage is OK
{{Asian topic}}	Armenian, Turkish, etc	These links only appear in the unused template; when the template is used, these become links to "Armenian XXX", "Turkish XXX", etc, e.g. Armenian cuisine, Turkish cuisine, etc.
{{African topic}}	Moroccan, Rwandan, etc	These links only appear in the unused template; when the template is used, these become links to "Moroccan XXX", "Rwandan XXX", etc, e.g. Moroccan cuisine, Rwandan cuisine, etc

Others I have already examined/considered:
