804:- Even in the finished form, it looks like a over-enthusiastic use of templates. The information is already present in the article. A template is supposed to be used if the same info needs to be used in multiple articles. I see no use of this info in any article other than the main World Cup article. 1175:
Per what I said at DRV, there are specific cases where this warning makes sense. There was the case of a now blocked and vanished user who acted in good faith but persisted in changing the style of articles again and again without any possibility to talk to them. There was real other misbehavior

except this stubbornness though. As Marcus Qwertyus notes above, this warning is not for people who create new content with style errors, even if they do it often. It's for those who keep changing the style even when they are reverted time and time again. It's the logical follow-up to

IMO that's answering the wrong question. Given that we do not typically block for MoS violations but rather for the social problems inherent in continuing to do so (i.e. for continuing to disrupt the project after being asked not to), the better approach would be to turn
1156:
I reckon we can do without this. As previously noted, we rarely consider MoS violations to really be blockworthy: if someone has gotten to an L4 over formatting disputes it's likely that they're misbehaving in other ways, and the generic L4 warning should work fine.

Delete. Article text is sufficient to indicate other finalists, if relevant to the article. Too temporal to bother with a template. Make a link to a list or article with the current listing of participants not yet eliminated. This project is not a newspaper.
961:. None of the titles of these nav boxes are articles and the pages they link to are only related as cricket teams, not as specifically having to do with a certain World Cup, let alone certain World Cup finalists. — 1133:
the style. If a user writes new content that has style errors then that is okay. If that becomes a problem AIV isn't the solution. A request for comment or some other noticeboard would be more relevant. --

Even if a decision is made to keep it, the name of the template is highly inappropriate for the information it provides (will provide). It needs to change.

It's somewhat troublesome that such an ill-advices template still has any mainspace transclusions at all, to be honest.
