Template:Largest metropolitan areas of India (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This template is based on 2008's estimation (the reference link of which is now not working). We already have a Template:Largest cities of India which is based on 2011 Census of India. Had this template been based on any of the previous censuses, there would have been a point to maintain historic records. Given the estimate nature of the source, i see no value in maintaining this here and hence should be deleted now. It also is unused. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 14:39, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Honor-stub (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This low inclusion stub-type (less than 40 transclusions) is built incorrectly, as it is directly transcluding the category "Category:Honor societies" which is not a stub-type category, therefore should not be being transcluded by the template (it will disappear when the stub template is removed) And "honor" is not equivalent to honor society, which is not equivalent to fraternity/brotherhood, which seems to be the only type of society transcluding this stubtype. At the very least this needs renaming, as it is not suitable for articles of the type similar to the US-medal-of-honor. I'm not sure this is needed as {{organization-stub}} works well enough. 70.50.151.11 (talk) 05:39, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WikiProject Cleanup taskforce (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Cleanup taskforce closed (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Template:Cleanup taskforce 1911 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

These notices, which currently appear on the talk pages of 340 articles, indicate that a project which has been defunct since 2008 at one time worked on, or considered working on, the articles. The project has been superseded by WikiProject Cleanup and is unlikely to ever be revived; more importantly, there is no reason to so obtrusively tag talk pages of articles that are undergoing routine cleanup and improvement. After six years of inactivity, the notices just add to talk page clutter without providing any value. -- Black Falcon (talk) 04:36, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
