Template:Allis-Chalmers (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Malformed template that only serves as redirect to main namespace. To avoid misunderstandings: templates are not supposed to act as a simple redirect from the template namespace to the main namespace. Templates are supposed to "do" something (present an infobox, navigation or the likes). The Banner _talk 18:15, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The edit summary "temp" may indicate an intention to develop the template later. However, in its current state it is confusing and serves no valid purpose. There is no need for it as some kind of placeholder. – Wdchk (talk) 18:54, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NENAN The Banner _talk 13:55, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - If Template:Lower Than Atlantis is being kept due to being "a useful template", then so should this. Do I need to specify which articles do not link to one another without the navbox?--Jax 0677 (talk) 20:36, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep He has 2 other albums which don't yet have articles, but if they did, it would put this just over the threshhold. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 21:57, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Article is at the threshold with 5 articles that do not all link to one another. This is all that NENAN specifically requires (if anything more than the artist article and four albums are required, please provide proof of this). Additionally, the rule of 5 is a guideline anyway. If needed, I will provide a list of articles that do not link to one another without use of the navbox.--Jax 0677 (talk) 18:03, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
