| I encountered a reference to {{tl|Unblock on hold-notification}} in the "administrator use" dropdown of the {{tl|unblock-un}} template. I feel that the template may be a bit more useful than the standard sort of talkback message that one can make using Twinkle, and I'd prefer to use that template's text rather than that of the generic talkback when I notify an admin that an unblock is on-hold pending their reply. | |||

| ==NFL lists sidebar== | |||
| Hello, and I'd ask that you please ]. It seems every argument used against it, including the nom, was the fact that it existed (i.e. that sidebar navboxes duplicate some of the items used in footer navboxes). This doesn't work, as sidebar navboxes are allowed, and hundreds of them exist on Misplaced Pages. Please read the discussion again, there was actually no argument that makes sense if the existence of sidebar navboxes is allowed, which it is. Thanks. ] (]) 15:44, 20 February 2024 (UTC) | |||
| : {{u|Randy Kryn}}, I re-read the discussion, and the argument was that every page using the sidebar was already using a footer navbox, and people felt that was excessive/redundant navigation. If you would like a review of my close of this discussion, please open one at ] and ping me. Thanks! ] ] 14:38, 21 February 2024 (UTC) | |||
| ::Hello, thanks for re-reading. I would say most major pages with sidebars also have footers which contain within them the same information. In this case, and most of the others, specific information is pulled out and presented in a concise format. That's the important difference. See biographical navboxes, such as those of Martin Luther King, some U.S. presidents, etc., which have both sidebars and footers. Editors may be told in a nom that this is redundant and sway editors to say "yes, it is, that's in the footer", but for site consistency the use of sidebar navboxes is accepted and common. Maybe a review yet this seems obvious when the wider and consistent site-usage exists. ] (]) 14:47, 21 February 2024 (UTC) | |||
| ::: There is history of sidebars being deleted at TFD when they are an exact (or near exact) copy (or subset) of the links in a navbox footer. Some examples I found are ], ], and the long series starting ]. There are also some that closed as no consensus like ]. Sidebars are considered on a case-by-case basis. Thanks! ] ] 14:55, 21 February 2024 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Thanks for the research. In some forms to be a Wikipedian is to be fine with time sinks, so thank you for putting up with questions and concerns like mine. It was such a good navbox and so easy to use, check, and navigate from article to article. I at least have a personal copy, but I bet hundreds of readers are going to miss it (maybe not, I could be an outlier). ] (]) 15:05, 21 February 2024 (UTC) | |||

There are many more examples, but no documented list as far as I know. Thanks! ] ] 14:35, 21 February 2024 (UTC) | |||
