A reference template that only has one usage. The template originally created with the expectation of heavy usage, which it has not gotten. The book has been referenced multiple times, however: All pages with source code containing ""The New Encyclopedia of Mammals"". Should the template be deleted and the one use be inlined, or should the already-existing citations be converted to using the reference template? SWinxy ( talk) 20:14, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Template transcluded to a single article ( 2022 Australian federal election) contravenes WP:TG: Templates should not normally be used to store article text, as this makes it more difficult to edit the content. Rather, 2022 Australian federal election should transclude directly from the main article cited in the section (of the same name as this template): Results of the 2022 Australian federal election (House of Representatives). — Guarapiranga ☎ 12:12, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Likewise, prefer simple article coding so non-technical people can edit.This is of great help not just for beginners but generally to keep articles more easily editable. Putting tables as templates also minimises disruption to them (and given, once the results are final, there is no need to edit them, this is a good thing) and guarantees consistency.

articles more easily editable? It seems to me it makes it more difficult that
non-technical people can edit.
Making the tables themselves harder to edit is a feature
as that means they are also less likely to be subject to disruption or vandalism (and really, why would anyone need to edit the tables once we have the final results in?)) or are you trying to score rhetorical brownie points? RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 03:56, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Duplicates {{ Cite Grove1900}}. They both link to the same edition of A Dictionary of Music and Musicians over on English Wikisource. Cite Grove1900 is more fully functioned and has multiple uses. Cite DMM only had three uses, which I have transitioned a short while ago and therefore it is now unused. I assume the reason for the DMM name was because that's the abbreviation we have used at enWS, however the work is well-known as the Grove. To prevent further uses I request deletion.
