We don't need a template to obfuscate links to the user namespace. [[User:Whoever|]] works just fine and is seven fewer characters to type. —Cryptic 18:31, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Text verbatim of deleted article, title does not match content, content is itself almost entirely inaccurate and what is accurate is redundant with pre-existing article 2006 definition of planet. Template is not used currently, and is unlikely to be used in the future. Michaelbusch 17:05, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Rodovid (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Template adds an external link to http://en.rodovid.org/wk/. So far as I can tell it is unused, so (a) unnecessary and (b) probable linkspam. -- Angus McLellan (Talk) 13:39, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was no consensus (or at best very weak keep) - the tfd tag had been removed from the template just after being placed, so, based on the opinions below, I'm defaulting to keep, without prejudice to a fresh nomination. Martinp23 13:31, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Moby game (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This template adds a link to Moby Games, as well as an external link to the appropriate page to buy the mobile phone version of game from Moby Games. I would suggest that this is a) unnecessary, b) free advertising and c), a source of income for Moby Games, a mobile content company. -- Proto::type 12:18, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. MobyGames makes no income of its own, and mobile games are only a very small fraction of what they cover. The site has cover scans and screenshots on a level Wikipedia forbids, plus otehr features such as complete inter-linked game credits and a store of magazine/website ratings converted into an average. These links are far more useul than links to GameSpot or IGN could ever be. --MartinUK 16:27, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. MobyGames keeps lots of useful information - credits, screenshots, cover art - which Wikipedia cannot host. The consensus on WP:CVG was that every game should link to MobyGames, and I suggest to discuss it there before deleting the template. See also: Mobygames talk --Krótki 13:26, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As above. a) MobyGames is not a mobile phone company b) did you read what MobyGames ( a project to docuement every signle game on every platform and offer that information to the public for free ) is before proposing to delete the template? c) the concensus on WP:CVG was that entries should contain links. --Flipkin 15:16, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. For reasons stated above. Also if MobyGames links are to be removed then why not links to other site like IGN and GameSpot? The reasons for deletion have no merit as they are not accurate. Sure any referrals to another site will provide traffic and thus some type of revenue which only helps to keep sites up and running. --Corn Popper 15:31, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. For reasons stated above. — Frecklefoot | Talk 15:50, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Per above. It's no different from IMDB links. wS; 17:50, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Aforementioned reasons. Stormwatch 18:02, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. For excellent reasons above. - Phorque 19:43, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Hardly worth a discussion, for the reasons stated above. - Sciere 19:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Doesnt act any different then if you put the link in manually or use the template. Salavat 07:31, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox NCAA team (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Template was only used by one article (Purdue Boilermakers), and I've modified that article to use the more common Template:Infobox college athletics. -- Engineer Bob 06:35, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Capacity (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Seem to have been originally mistakenly created for an articel, then changed to something else. Currently unused anywhere and seemingly totally useless. It does have a great name and someone may be able to turn it to a good use. --68.39.174.238 04:48, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The template has been quickly deleted, so this discussion can be closed. 68.39.174.238 23:54, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
