Template talk:PlatformJava

Deletion nomination
This template (and the concept of parameterizing port platforms in general) is not going to see much use. The caller should just use the  necessary directly instead. IMHO the balance of utility vs cost of cluttering the template namespace makes it not worth it. -- Shambler (talk) 03:40, 16 September 2015 (CDT)


 * I agree, I do not see the purpose to this. We are not running Semantic MediaWiki here. --Quasar (talk) 11:31, 16 September 2015 (CDT)


 * After some thought I agree with Shambler. I understand the intent, but maintenance is high and the value to the reader is negligible &mdash; the linked articles are unlikely to say anything applicable to Doom port development specifically, or even to installing the latest package.

Deleted this template and the associated page ❌, per the above. 6+ years after platform parameterization was proposed, it seems only one vanity editor ever supported it. Ryan W (living fossil) 20:26, 7 January 2018 (CST)
