Whilst some form of link back to the original foreign language article is required under GFDL, I do not see any necessity for it to be listed on the article page. The translated article will (or should) have an interwiki link to the original article, so other links are unnecessary. The template {{ translated page}} is designed for use in talk space, and should be used in preference. — Tivedshambo ( t/ c) 15:31, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Navigation template connecting very disparate articles that only have the character Wolverine (comics) in common. In some cases the connection is tenuous at best. In others the character isn't a sole focal point but is present as part of a larger group of characters. Reducing the template down to the articles central to the character results in a template of minimal use since the articles should already sufficiently interlinked.

Keep - should keep it, Wolverine has much more history and background than the average Marvel character. Some of those characters don't have to do with anyone but Wolverine. The Wolverine movie is coming out soon as well so more people will be looking at topics that relate to him. Davs34 09:22, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

The three interconnected "Talk thread deletion notice" templates ( Template:DTFD, Template:DTFDB and Template:DTFDN) are unnecessary. They are intended to serve as notice prior to thread deletion on article talk pages--the user is instructed to use all three in the same instance. There is no requirement for prior discussion of harmful talk page entries listed in Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines; any inappropriate talk entry can be deleted by any user. In fact, if a talk entry contains a personal attack or a legal threat, or if it contains personal information, using these three templates would slow down the process and expose the harmful entry to a greater number of viewers. Instead of having these three templates, deletion of the bad talk entry is recommended by WP:TPG. Binksternet ( talk) 19:25, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
Keep: DTFDB is used at the bottom of the DTFD red box like the bottom of the occo box. See User talk:Example for useage. As for DTFDN, I will let that go as per WP:DTTR. It is meant to be for things that are disputed or may not be clear-cut, anything else may be removed by anyone. Besides, it may not warrent total deletion but some stuff should be removed. One editor once suggested to me to remove the vowels from insults, especially insultive slurs.-- Ipatrol ( talk) 22:20, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

I see your position as WP:CREEP, but only statements from the nominator and the template's creator isn't enough to delete the template. It's only for things that might not pass the snowball test.-- Ipatrol ( talk) 18:06, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
Just wanted to reinforce the point that three templates are under discussion here as candidates for deletion: Template:DTFD, Template:DTFDB and Template:DTFDN. User:Ipatrol has mentioned that Template:DTFDN could be taken out per "Don't template the regulars" ( WP:DTTR) but the two other templates are still in question.

Any LDS Church-unique info this template conveys is now more comprehensively conveyed in Template:LDSGAinfo (see, for example, redundancy on Gordon B. Hinckley). The biographical info is better presented in Template:Infobox Person (see WP:GA Thomas S. Monson) and any succession info is already presented in the Template:Succession boxs at the bottom of each article. -- Eustress ( talk) 04:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
