- Template:Vndb (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
The VNDB is editable just like Wikipedia. This template is wholly unnecessary. I have also noticed that the website is being used as references (two are used on 11eyes: Tsumi to Batsu to Aganai no Shōjo). A massive revision on anime articles is recommended.

- Keep - This is a valid template to be used for external links, like {{GameFAQs}} and the {{IMDb}} templates. If it's used as a reference and it's not a reliable source... well that's hardly a problem that should be solved at TfD. Treat it like any other unreliable source used as a reference. :) ·Salvidrim!· ✉ 06:17, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Keep: Used for ELs, and not referencing. We don't delete imdb and youtube templates for this reason either. If people are misusing the template, fix the issue on the relevant page. -- 李博杰 | —Talk contribs email 07:18, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- While it's true that this is symptomatic of the generally egregious quality of our coverage of this subject, so long as this is being used as an extlink and not a reference it's probably not going to help anything by deleting it.

- Keep I have to agree to keep. If it is being used as a reference that is indeed a problem but since it is clearly marked as Category:External link templates, it should not be deleted as it has use there. 50.53.15.59 (talk) 12:57, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Keep I agree with the other keep votes. It's a valid EL template similar to Template:ANN and the others listed by Salvidrim. If it's being used improperly, the solution is education, not deletion.--Atlantima (talk) 13:47, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Keep – This is an external link template so there's no real reason to delete it as it is not used for RSing just formatting ELs. Cabe6403 (Talk•Sign) 15:40, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Keep per all of the above. Templating multiple external links to the same site helps with monitoring, and in cases where their URL structure changes. Snowball? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:39, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
Virtually a navbox with only links to redlinks besides the main page. Until at least a few of them get created, there'd be no point in having this. ZappaOMati 00:46, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
- Delete. If articles can't be created for the red-linked items in four years, it's probably not going to happen (if it does, recreate it at such time). Transcluded in only one article. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 01:25, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
