Template:Edit-top-section

As user:Sandstein points out for the similar template:Edit-first-section, "This template is obsolete, as its functionality is now available as a user preference (see Special:Preferences > Gadgets > User Interface Gadgets)" Generally, including server-side commands into an article seems to be a bad idea. Functions should stay with the software, and not not clogg the wiki, wich is supposed to be simple and free of such needs. — 790 (talk) 12:18, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for now. {{Edit-first-section}} is indeed obsolete. This template is still used on 50+ (long) articles, and not everyone has the gadget enabled. They do not conflict, and the template documentation does point users to the gadget.

The result of the debate was speedy delete CSD G7 by User:Elonka. Non-admin closure. JPG-GR (talk) 06:14, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since I created this template a few months back, all character articles have been merged and this is no longer being used anywhere. I'm sure a more generic template exists should the need arise in the future, so this one may as well go. — PC78 (talk) 03:35, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
