Keep, Template:INFOBOX INDCONST is used to substitute the full template of Template:Infobox Indian state legislative assembly constituency while using an AWB or during manual edit. Substituting Template:Infobox Indian state legislative assembly constituency gives unnecessary extra bits thats need to be cleaned up. --

Delete. If the base template has an issue, fix it. If the copy/paste in the documenation of the base template has an issue, fix it. What not to do is create a template with an unclear name with no documentation.

MPGuy2824, I dont know how to fix it. I am not sure if this is even fixable. I just want to get the work done and hence this came as an obvious solution till someone finds a better one. I request the admin to not delete this until a viable alternative to do the same thing is made available. I think this deletion nomination is going overboard and deleting stuff that are useful and actively being used without any clear policy basis for deletion.

Indeed I figured out the "Infobox Indian state legislative assembly constituency" was not made for substitution, which is why I made one for doing just that. The infobox is used on 5,000+ pages, so we need to be careful about editing the infobox template. This deletion of Template:INFOBOX INDCONST is unnecessarily disruptive. @
MPGuy2824 The comparison is at
Special:Diff/1102475526/1102503945, I think the comments should be substituted, they help the editors.

Some things don't need fixes. Some things don't need to exist. Not every template needs to have a subst version. Just use the infobox like it should.

The substitution template saves time in searching and saves 7-8 clicks needed to copy paste, allows AWB usage too. These are significant benefits in keeping this template.

Either delete or subpage of Venkat's. If it's useful to him, I see no reason to remove it, but I do see quite a reason not to have it in main template space. --
