Template:VIZ company (Press Releases) (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unnecessary template. Press releases already cited by {{cite press release}} and there is no valid reason to just put a press release in the External Links instead of using it as a reference if it adds anything to an article. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 20:13, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete XD I had to think about this one for a bit, but your final comment makes sense to me. External link to company website? Yes. Company website press release? Clutter. Liashi (talk) 21:27, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Shueisha (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Inappropriate and unnecessary "template". Words kind of escape me on its current state (as a note, it has since been reverted to an earlier version, but the deletion reason still stands). Regardless, Shueisha is one of the biggest publishers in Japan. A template of their works is not an good use of a template at all. It would be like making a template with every book published by Random House. Far better handled by the existing Category:Shueisha. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 20:11, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete the number of works is indeed very large, making a category better suited for this. -- Ned Scott 04:13, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. While I would have voted to delete the pre-cleanup version of this template in a heartbeat, the current one doesn't look half bad. It's definitely useful as a navigation tool between the company's magazines.--Nohansen (talk) 06:35, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep If the table is defaulted to hide, it is a pretty good template. Samuel Sol (talk) 15:01, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Deleting templates does not solve any pressing problems and this is a reasonable, useful template. --Dragon695 (talk) 17:45, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Split or Keep Split? Keep? I'm not too sure which is better. Although I originally created the template, I am surprised by the horribly disorganized mess it had become, as I hadn't created it in order to make such a far-reaching monster. The old version you cited especially looks more like a list than a template. After looking at the history since creation, I realize why. It was moved to include all of Shueisha's magazine media, while I created it only to cover their manga magazines. I would suggest that if it is too list-like it be split into sub-templates: Manga Magazines and Magazines (with Hitotsubashi Group being a sub-category within both templates.) The reason I originally created it wasn't to cover everything, which, as you pointed out, is better suited to the category feature...which isn't being properly used, unfortunately. I created it because Shueisha didn't have a template for it's various types of manga magazines as other companies did (Shogakukan for example), and I found it hard to navigate between them when trying to find out about them as related works. I designed it for ease of navigation between magazines related by the topic of MANGA...not just a general company name. In any case, if the majority of people like/want/need/approve the ability to navigate between just manga magazines as well as other types without going to a category page, by all means we should keep it as-is. The addition of website links and the Japanese, however, are clearly abusing the template, and I am glad that the current version has removed them. That sort of information belongs on the articles for the company/magazines themselves. Liashi (talk) 01:27, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Indefblockedipbecause (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Unused template that is unlikely to ever be used, we, in practice, rarely, if ever, indef block IP's, and I don't see any use for this template. Steve Crossin (talk)(email) 04:44, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template that includes 1 wikilink. Might have been the start of a navbox. 1 article and 2 userpage instances. Thetrick (talk) 00:27, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I spoke too soon on this. There's a whole forest of these bitsy templates out there being built by some football project, and this one just happened to have been tagged as uncategorized (though the other I looked at didn't have a category). Still, only one article use. --Thetrick (talk) 00:45, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
