The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the debate was speedy deleted by Drini as T1 candidates and I have no complaint. In general, if a template accuses people of being "negligent idiots" or "suicidal", it is an inflammatory one. Sjakkalle (Check!) 12:08, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Template:User recycling2

Template:User recycling2 (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This user thinks that people who don't recycle waste are negligent idiots.
Wow, even I think this should be subst'ed and deleted. Calling people "negligent idiots" is definitely polemical and unhelpful to the encyclopedia. --M@rēino 21:13, 23 May 2006 (UTC)


Aww. I was fixing this template while sombeody deleted it. I improved it to

{{Tfd-inline|User recycling2}} This user thinks that people who don't recycle waste are suicidal.


Oh well Don't say i didn't try--E-Bod 01:22, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

Relisting per DRV. --Interiot 17:54, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

This template is too large see The Block at Orange for example and should be converted to a more economical category. MarsRover 01:10, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Since there are redlinks, a list would be better than a category - and a list is already part of the article Mills Corporation. The template currently provides categorisation for pages it is used on - if the template is removed, the category should be added back. SeventyThree 02:23, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Template:Serebiidex

Template:Serebiidex (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
This template is just a link to a Pokedex, thats all thats in it. Even worse: The image is inside another templae so theres no need to worry about the text changing. What someone should do is enter {{subst:Serebiidex}} BEFORE the template gets deleted where the template is placed in {{Pokerefs}}. It also had parameters (Which was NOT used in any of the Pokemon articles.) We should apply the articles to Pokerefs, NOT a template inside Pokerefs. Theres no need to have a template inside a template unless the template is used in lots of other templates.

So in Pokerefs, change:

{{Serebiidex}}

to

{{subst:Serebiidex}}

which will turn it into:

’s 3rd Gen Pokédex entry for {{{2}}}]

and then apply parametres to Pokerefs by using this {{Pokerefs|PokemonNumbder|PokemonName}}, and it will include no time wasting, the parametres weren't currently used anyway. Please discuss what you should do and sign it using ~~~~ I Love Minun 15:07, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment Personally I don't see why it should be deleted, templates like this are useful for when links change and such - even if it isn't used in every pokemon article. This is an uninformed opinion, however. RN 22:42, 24 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete Serebii.net is totally offensive to my favourite POkémon, don't link back to serebii.net at all <i>P</i>o<i>k</i>e<i>m</i>o<i>n</i> Fan.—This user is a vandal and suspected sockpuppet.
  • Keep. I think it's a useful template for the Pokémon articles. --Sparky Lurkdragon 20:22, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Note User:Iloveminun, the nominator, has altered the pokerefs template to completely remove all links to Serebii from it, replacing it with links to Pokémon Galaxy. Serebii is a valued source of Pokémon knowledge, and has been replaced with a website which actually crashes my window on both occassions I have gone near it. Highway 21:20, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
    • While I agree with your assessment, your ad hominem argument has no bearing on the value of this template. -- WikidSmaht (talk) 01:11, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
      • That's not an ad hominem argument. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 03:35, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
        • I will freely admit this isn’t my forte, but I though an ad hominem argument was an argument relating to the character or actions of the person representing the opposition, rather than the merits of the case( in this instance, the value of {{Serebiidex}}). -- WikidSmaht (talk) 21:46, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
      • I have evidence on this. First of all, User:Iloveminun is trying to remove all connections with Serebii so he can replace it with Pokémon Galaxy. Pokémon Galaxy is actually Iloveminun's own site, which is why he's been POV pushing on the matter, as well as voting on this TfD repeatedly. I also have reason to believe that User:PokemonFan is a sock puppet to Iloveminun, primarily because of the instantaneous grasp of the TfD system, and the fact that I have two other users who I have evidence to link with Iloveminun. See all notes here. Highway 12:38, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
        • Lets just settle it We might as well just keep it, because I want to stop being accused of using sock puppets. IM NOT USING SOCKPUPPETS so lets just keep it if it can stop me from being accused.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by I Love Minun (talk • contribs) 19:28, May 28, 2006 (UTC).

Template:User DLF

Another political party affiliation userbox, this time for an extreme right wing Norwegian party. Since I don't endorse T2 I am bringing this here. Sjakkalle (Check!) 09:22, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Keep. What about all the communist templates, then? They are extreme left-wing. --80.239.107.30 10:39, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
