delete spamming link template. Wingfilee ( talk) 20:21, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. I - the author of this template - am a Wikipedia administrator, a contributor to the project since 2005 and in no way related to the Culinary Heritage of Switzerland project. The template is not used for spamming links, but for providing an external link to a relevant reference work in the area of Swiss food, as with other templates in Category:External link templates. I ask Wingfilee ( talk · contribs) to please undo his reversals of my additions of this template. Sandstein 20:28, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

This is an example of creating a template for the sake of creating a template. It does not provide enough functionality to make it worth using. This template saves a single keystroke if you were to otherwise do everything manually. ie Instead of typing "* '''Delete''' " followed by your reason and signature you type "{{TfDdelete|reason}} ~~~~". It also adds an unnecessary image. AussieLegend ( talk) 15:42, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

- Delete Maybe it's time they're salted as well, so we don't keep running around the same circle. Parsecboy ( talk) 17:03, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
- Delete. The templates are redundant, unnecessary and useless. We do very good without these templates, and nobody is going to need a template to voice their opinion. These templates seem to only be here for easiness. We can already voice our opinion very easy and efficiently. If we had a template that made it easier to make talk page posts, that would fall under the same category as these templates. It would be the same thing as we are already able to make talk page posts efficiently without templates. I know templates have great use, but having templates for deletion discussions to voice your opinion is ridiculous. — Mythdon ( talk • contribs) 03:05, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
- Delete all - is it really so hard to just type 'keep' or 'delete'? If these are continually recreated, and consensus is consistently against them, I agree that maybe they should be WP:SALTed. Terraxos ( talk) 17:36, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Seems a little small for a template. Not much you can add here; I tend to believe that templates should have at least five "main" entries. I don't think even adding Craig McCracken or Genndy Idon'tknowhowtospellthatname onto here would save it. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ( Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 03:51, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
NeutralFour articles are always borderline for the necessity of templates. – sgeureka t• c 10:46, 4 December 2008 (UTC)- Change to keep I can obviously neither count nor read, but I agree with Terraxos. Also, even if two of the articles aren't major, not having this template would likely lead to SeeAlso sections, which aren't any prettier than a template. – sgeureka t• c 18:36, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
