Template:New Mutants (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The majority of what is included in this template is already covered in Template: X-Men and Template: X-Men comics. Plus, I've found that a template like this as been deleted once before. 68.55.153.254 (talk) 16:46, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Moreimages (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Orphaned template. Absolutely useless. -68.223.42.228 (talk) 14:39, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:VPCnotice (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

The notice has now been removed from WP:VPC as steady participation has been acheived. Its now unused, the links box in the template is included in the page header. Acather96 (talk) 10:07, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:PD-old-50 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

In almost every circumstance for an image, there is a better template than this one which will describe the issue more in depth. In the rare instance that there is not (e.g., Barbados), there will need to be an explanation anyway. As such, {{PD-because}} is a better rationale. In any case, I have literally spent months removing *hundreds and hundreds* of images from the corresponding category, and all but one of those images was mistagged; someone had simply plopped this tag on it wrongly as a way of getting it to be PD. And that one image I just placed into the correct category listed above.

In any case, this template is misused too often and misunderstood. It likely was originally created under a false pretense (see talk page). It should go; it's causing more harm than good. Magog the Ogre (talk) 06:21, 31 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Important Educational hubs of North Malabar (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
