Template:Itinerary

Per Template talk:Itinerary, this template is no longer necessary. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 19:34, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

• Keep It is used on several user pages. AlasdairW (talk) 22:16, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

• I do not understand. It seems obvious that we should have a template for starting new itinerary articles, & this seems the obvious name for it. Am I missing something? Pashley (talk) 15:51, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Yep, you are. Read the talk page linked by SelfieCity.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 15:57, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

I read it before posting the above, but it does not give any reason that makes sense to me. Pashley (talk) 16:58, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

There is no template to create a new itinerary, instructions for that are at Wikivoyage:Itinerary article template. This was just a template that created a little text on the page and added the article to a category. This is now done with {{PartOfItinerary}}. --Traveler100 (talk) 17:58, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

• Keep until it is no longer in use on any article. Then delete, to avoid confusion with the new template.--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 15:57, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Delete the new template instead? A breadcrumb that links to a longer itinerary or to a geographic region makes sense, but IsPartOf works for those cases & I see no need for Template:PartOfItinerary. See also Talk:Travel_topics_index#Stop_the_breadcrumbs?. Pashley (talk) 17:08, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Where is the latest real discussion (I remember having followed at least part of it)? The one linked is just noting a decision. Template:PartOfItinerary/doc refers to Wikivoyage:Breadcrumb navigation, which says

"Breadcrumb navigation should be used for all destination articles. It should not be used for itinerary articles, even if they are located within a geographical area."

It seems the new template is not yet supported by our guidelines.

Talk:Itineraries#Long lists --Traveler100 (talk) 05:34, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

• @ThunderingTyphoons!, Traveler100: Most of the pages on the list are project and user pages. T100, could you handle replacing the templates? --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 22:51, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

All itinerary pages have the new template. Generally when any delete takes place, including articles of places, the red links are kept on talk pages so context is clear. --Traveler100 (talk) 05:34, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

• @ThunderingTyphoons!: As Traveler100 has confirmed that he is done with that work, are you willing to vote in favor of deleting the page? --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 12:35, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Sure. Btw, the ping still didn't work - don't know why. I only clicked because of your edit summary ("fix ping").--ThunderingTyphoons! (talk) 14:05, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

I think the ping doesn't work if you try it the second time. I tried to fix the problem by re-adding the four tildes, but obviously, that didn't work. Thanks for telling me. I will archive this as delete, probably, in the near future, though thngs seem to be quite split here. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 17:31, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

Once again, I simply haven't had the time lately. I'll get to this when I can, if it hasn't been deleted and archived already by that point. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 19:38, 5 October 2019 (UTC)

• Result: delete. While there are a couple of votes to keep, and I am biased, I think the delete argument won out here. Consequently, I will delete the template and archive the discusison. --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 19:50, 5 October 2019 (UTC)
