Illerai:Requests for deletion/Template:Infobox Pet
Template:Infobox Pet
Template:Infobox Pet is currently unused and per Forum:Multi infobox, which closed two years ago with the determination that Infobox Pet would be replaced with Template:Multi Infobox, as it has been in the time since. As a result, any use of the template would be a now-outdated way of handling things.
WLH for the template currently shows 9 links (10 now that I'm linking to it here), of which one is a transclusion in a user sandbox made in 2020, one is the discussion post I linked above, and the rest are all transclusions which more or less exist just because the template exists, ie the underlying Module page, the docs page, etc.
Since it's not used in any real capacity currently, and because there has already been consensus to replace it - which was done quite a while ago, I think it's safe for this template to go.

Delete - I honestly think this could be speedy D'd, but whatever, get rid of it in any case. InvalidCards (talk) 07:54, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
Keep or find something to redirect it to - For historical revisions User:Crow/Signature 11:12, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think keeping around cruft is worth it for historical revisions, especially if there has already been a forum about the subject. InvalidCards (talk) 11:19, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
- I think it's worth keeping. In fact, most of the infoboxes we have removed have in fact been redirected specifically for historical revisions. User:Crow/Signature 11:21, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
- Do you have examples of the redirected ones? --User:Legaia 2 Pla/Signature 19:23, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- Infoboxes Hunter and Fishing Spot go to Infobox NPC. Infoboxes Tree, Rock, Farming, and Fruit Tree go to Infobox Scenery. Idk if there's more, but Construction should also eventually be phased out and redirected to probably Scenery. User:Crow/Signature 08:16, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Redirect - Redirecting this seems to make sense? User:Kelsey/Signature 09:52, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
Closed - The Infobox Pet template will be redirected to {{Infobox NPC}}, given the name and image parameters refer to the pet as an NPC, rather than as an item, which use the inventory and itemname parameters instead. Using Infobox NPC instead of Infobox Item also helps preserve the location and race parameters. Ostentatio (talk) 21:53, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
