As per discussion at WP:FOOTY, the benefit of this template is unclear. Firstly, if something like this has to exist, it should link the host federations rather than the national teams. More importantly, I would suggest it is superfluous to Template:FIFA World Cup, which provides useful linking between the tournaments themselves. I can't see why anybody is likely to want to navigate between disparate countries / federations / teams just because they have happened to be hosts. Jellyman (talk) 19:26, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Support The federations not the national teams should be listed and they already are in Template:FIFA World Cup. The only thing this adds is flags, which aren't needed. Walter Görlitz (talk) 19:43, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Support as redundant to Template:FIFA World Cup. — Jkudlick ⚓ t ⚓ c ⚓ s 23:12, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Support as it is not really needed. Like mentioned above, this template basically does the job of Template:FIFA World Cup and is only used in national team pages which is completely unnecessary. DaveTheBrave ❯❯❯ Talk 05:15, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

These are not what a WP:NAVBOX is for. They are articles masquerading as a navboxes, giving additional information regarding population, etc, etc, which is not what a navbox is designed for, and they also include external links and references. For the most part, they also seem to be single use templates, so perhaps they could be substituted, or converted to a different type of markup other than that used for navboxes. --woodensuperman 15:16, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- This is a stupid, pointless nomination. All these templates are well crafted, and highly useful across many articles, with the main point to hide the complicated code away from the main pages, and thus, not scare inexperienced editors. Stop trying to nuke the work of may editors before, just because some technicality was ignored at some point. Nergaal (talk) 15:28, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- It's an abuse of navboxes. This is not what they are for. This sort of information belongs elsewhere, in an article, etc, but not here. --woodensuperman 15:33, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep all. They aren't WP:NAVBOX so the nomination doesn't make much sense (other nomination arguments were added after this post [2]). All examples I examined were only used in a demographics section or similar in an article about the country or region, e.g. Scotland#Demographics, and possibly one or two other general articles. They shouldn't be used as navboxes at the bottom of the cities, and they aren't (if you find an exception then feel free to remove them from those cities). They just happen to have a similar design to {{Navbox}} but they don't even use that template. They use {{Largest cities}}. PrimeHunter (talk) 15:43, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay, I see that now, I was clearly being a bit hasty! I think maybe the markup should be changed to stop these looking just like navboxes. The {{Largest cities of Iceland}} looks different to the others - maybe that should be adopted. But I apologise for wasting everyone's time and WITHDRAW my nomination. --woodensuperman 15:50, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
