There is no article for rxIRC, I would consider this a housekeeping deletion. We should not have templates for tracking non-notable software. (As a separate issue it is very well established, but I am questionable about this practice of using templates to track software versions.) ] (]) 21:26, 27 September 2009 (UTC) There is no article for rxIRC, I would consider this a housekeeping deletion.

*'''Question'''. This appears to be just one of hundreds of similar templates listed in ]. Based on the other listings in the article where it is used, ], it appears that quite a few of these products do not have their own articles. Is there something that makes this template especially undesirable, or do you believe that all the templates with similar situations should be deleted as well? --] (]) 21:49, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

These were created back in 2005, apparently either for use with Misplaced Pages:Selected anniversaries or to do something similar just for philosophy. However, the effort seems to have gone in a different direction, creating an article, and these templates were abandoned. Two inquiries by me have produced no indication of any interest in using these templates for anything. I would have contacted the sole editor/creator about speedy deletion, but his user talk page indicates he has left Misplaced Pages. So here they are. --RL0919 (talk) 16:48, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Template:2005 Pro Bowl NFC starters

Template:2005 Pro Bowl NFC starters (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

A rather trivial link between players given the current year: contributes to template clutter. Would be better served by a category or list. Magog the Ogre (talk) 17:37, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

  • Comment - think about the logical consequences of that: a 9 time pro bowl starter will require 9 templates, just for this at the bottom of his page. Can't this better be served as a category? Or combined with other Pro Bowl starters? I just happen to think of someone *really* wants to navigate through the pro-bowl starters from a given year, can't they just go to the respective page?
