It has been three years since this template was deprecated. At this point, I do not think it serves anyone anymore to have this placeholder telling which template to use or not. Regularly editing users should be well aware of the alternatives, and this will just cause more confusion for interlanguage as well, who come across this page and wonder why there is this confusing red box or smth that they do not understand.

- Delete agreed its useless and unneeded and is unneeded even for page history reasons Qwv (talk) 10:30, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep – it seems that this page is still used frequently; pageviews have not dropped off too much since the deprecation. Perhaps reconfigure to make this a more general disambiguation page, as given that views have in general remained pretty steady, it seems like lots of editors are coming here looking for a different template – perhaps {{uw-block}}, I don't know (this ignorance despite being a
regularly editing user
). J947 † edits 08:38, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]- That is probably because of the interlanguage links. Once the template is gone from the interlanguage directory the views will probably go away as well. :) Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 20:40, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I just checked select pageview counts for this template in other languages. It seems that combining all non-English-language versions of this template together yields approximately twice as many views as the en.wp template – an estimate. Nowhere near 1 in 2 users viewing a template will click a specific link on the interlanguage directory. Maybe 1 in 20. J947 † edits 23:32, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
