Keep, at least until I understand what's going to happen with the info in this box. Or maybe my question is, what does subst precisely mean? -- Iterator12n Talk 19:10, 27 February 2008 (UTC) reply
subst means replacing {{Template:Euro}} on euro with the content of the template to be deleted. Besides copying and pasting, one can use {{subst:Template:Euro}} on euro. And after saving, the line is magically replaced by the content. I believe this is appropriate in this case since the template is used only in one article. See Wikipedia:Template substitution about subst. -- ChoChoPK (球球PK) ( talk | contrib) 19:18, 27 February 2008 (UTC) reply
Delete, per explanation of subst. Thanks ChoChopk, still learning the template stuff. -- Iterator12n Talk 19:29, 27 February 2008 (UTC) reply

Template:New World Order ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template is for a wrestling stable that isn't around anymore. It's not useful, as there is no other stables that have templates. RobJ1981 ( talk) 15:58, 27 February 2008 (UTC) reply

Delete - The big problems I have with this are the layout (initials are use for some wrestlers, last names are used for some, and full names are used for the rest) and the fact that it's nowhere near complete (15 wrestlers are listed, although between the first incarnation and nWo Japan alone, there were 36 members). Even if the template was complete, though, it wouldn't be useful because there were 11 different versions of this group and way too many members for a helpful template. GaryColemanFan ( talk) 16:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC) reply
Delete - As cruft. If we start creating templates for every wrestling stable, some wrestlers pages will be nothing but templates, as many, especially durring the ill fated stable wars were always in one stable or another. Less Than Clippers 19:02, 27 February 2008 (UTC) reply

None of the above are used in the main space. They are all redundant to {{ convert}} & other templates in the category. They are poorly named: no indication of what they convert to, no indication that they are conversion templates at all; the last [Fluid ounce] is also ambiguious (imperial or US).
