Old test page, originally intended for WikiProject philosophy in 2008 but never fully implemented. requested to take to TfD instead of CSD due to age.

edits like this. –

- It was apparently intended to link Category talk pages together, part of a project of some sort abandoned by its creator in 2008, several years before they stopped editing. It was only used on two pages, and everyone in Wikiproject philosophy just uses
the main project talk page, but there are plenty of other templates that link various philosophy articles together.

This template for use in File: space appears to be redundant to {{
Non-free use rationale album cover}} or {{
Non-free video cover}} or {{
Non-free album cover}}. I admit that I do not understand the differences among all of these fair-use rationale templates, but this one, created in 2007 and used on only four pages, does not appear to have kept up with modern usage. –

- Delete - This template is outdated and redundant to the non-free use rationale templates noted in the nomination. Of the four files that use this template, three of the files also have a standard non-free use rationale template. I added a non-free use rationale template to the fourth file so deletion of this template will not cause any issues with a missing rationale on any of these files. --

- @
Gonnym: That's a question I guess you'd have to pose at the
WP:NENAN talk page, as in its current state it does read (emphasis added),
A good, but not set-in-stone rule to follow is the "rule of five": are there presently at least five articles (not counting the primary article) on which your navbox will be used? (For instance, five books or films in a series; five singles or albums for a music article; five products by a common company; five members of a common group such as a band, comedy troupe, etc.) If not, then you probably don't need a navbox just yet.
Of course, things like
WP:IAR work fine for justifying an opposing viewpoint. But if someone's choosing to apply the
WP:NENAN metric, then the essay says what it says.

Removed from the mainspace per the edit description "RDT not needed - far too complicated and twisted to be useful." Otherwise, delete if not applicable to another article.

- Delete as the removal justification seems fair. The actual system map is already shown on the page, and it's this:
File:MBTA_Commuter_Rail_Map.svg — rendering that mess as an RDT, basically squeezing a two-dimensional star pattern into a tight bundle of vertical lines, seems counterproductive to me.

- Comment It seems that a few users went on a tear creating these for every possible state and some localities, and while I applaud the dedication, I really question the utility of things like the nom'd template, or
Template:California rail network, for example.
- My understanding of "route diagrams" is that they map a single route through a system, showing other lines only as connection offshoots. For example, the NYC MTA displays a route diagram onboard each subway car, showing only the stops along that individual train's number/letter-designated "line". (Amusingly, the Wikipedia articles on those service lines don't feature RDTs.) Similarly, each bus stop has route diagrams for each bus that stops there. But for anything covering more than a single line, they use at least semi-geographical maps.
- Unfortunately,
{{
Routemap}}
may have been made too powerful, as the fact that it can be used to create overcomplicated monstrosities doesn't mean it should, but definitely means it will.
