Parent article, Aeronautical Institute of Bangladesh, has been deleted at AfD. Only one bluelink. Jenks24 ( talk) 23:10, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
The result of the discussion was revert to the version dated 15 November 2011. There was little discussion, and therefore no consensus, regarding the template's original wording ('This article is incomplete. ...'), and so I recommend a new discussion if anyone wishes to pursue its deletion. -- Black Falcon ( talk) 07:02, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
Last TFD resulted in a Keep !vote due to WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Somehow, the wording of the template has shifted from "This article is incomplete and may require expansion or cleanup." — which is somewhat vague, but at least accessible — to the vague and useless "Please expand this article." In short, it has become a clone of {{ expand}}, which was deleted for the very reason of being vague and overused.
I have no idea why the verbiage was changed. No discussion on the talk page or in the TFD suggested that the template should be changed to THE EXACT SAME WORDING as the now-deleted {{ expand}}. What was the point?
Having only recently been reworded, its "reason" paramter is unused in nearly every transclusion. Either delete or revert to the previous, less vague wording — the word "incomplete" at least narrows it down to "is missing information about something", which is more justifiable than just "needs expansion".

{{Expand further|1={{{1|article}}}|date={{{date|}}}|reason={{{reason|}}}|further=no|type=content}}
{{
Incomplete}}
) into a pint pot {{
Expand further}}
. Expand further was a highly specialised template, one might even say niche. Failing to realise that Incomplete should stand on it's own, not surprisingly Expand further got moved to Expand article. A template with this function is needed, and every attempts to remove it, simply wreaks more havok. Lets leave well alone now. Keep unchanged.

Speedy delete per G2. As the name implies, it's a test page for the existing television infobox mirroring the destination article's info.

Only a few songs in list have articles which are already transcluded in the template {{ Shake It Up}}. The album article itself is a better source for the complete track listing anyway. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 17:38, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
