While "host cities of the Francophonie summits" is a natural grouping, it is still not suitable for a navbox. It is not really significant to the history of these cities (the list includes several national capitals) that they at one time hosted a summit of La Francophonie. For example, while the fact that the 1991 summit took place in Paris is important in the context of the article
La Francophonie, it is not especially significant in the context of the article
Paris (at most, it might merit a few words). In addition, if such templates were created for other international organisations, this would quickly lead to template clutter on articles about most major cities. A list already exists at
Francophonie#Summits. (See also the
related CFD.)
As a template of purely links to cities, I agree that it isn't especially significant. However, the template design could be worthwhile if converted to be of links to the individual summits.

I thought only Works of US Government Employees were public domain. Last time I checked, the government doesn't write our taxes for us.

Records that are part of the application process for tax exemption for U.S. charities (tax code 501 (c)) become public record, after the tax exemption has been granted. If you would only follow the link within the template to the website of the IRS and read the official text, you would find that out too. Keep.

Delete, together with all files using this template. Read
en:WP:PD#Public records. Public records are not automatically in the public domain. "Right to access" ≠ "Right to copy and republish", and inclusion in the public records does not make a work PD-USGov.

This template was created December 2007, but still only contains red links. Seems like these articles won't be created (at leats for some time) and therefore this template is unnecessary.

Delete as useless. A navigation template should not be orphan and must navigate through articles not red links. --

As was said
last time this was nominated for exactly the same reason, it's not a disclaimer template, it's a standard form of words that was hashed out after much debate to cover, in a neutrally worded way, the what lack of accreditation actually means, in the numerous articles on unaccredited institutions which range from fundamentalist Bible colleges to outright diploma mills.
