October 20

Template:Dab quotes (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:18, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Bq (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Fork of {{Quote}}, to which it is redundant (and much less used). Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:15, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Block quote (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Claims to be "an alias of {{Quote}}" but is actually an unnecessary wrapper for it. I suggest we SUBST: all instances, then delete it. See example substitution. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:12, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Quote2col (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to other quote templates, with one of which the mere 21 transclusions should be replaced. Uses table markup, with poor accessibility, for layout instead of proper quotation markup. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:55, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Multilingual quote (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to other quote templates, with one of which the mere 33 transclusions should be replaced. Uses table markup, with poor accessibility, for layout instead of proper quotation markup. (Many of the non-English quotations are unnecessary and may be removed.) Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:42, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
