In the heart of the sea
You took this off the Moby dick Template. The problem is even though the film is not an adaptation of MD, it is still related to the subject as it is based on the incident that the book is based on. That makes it at least relevant to the template, though were exactly it should go is a bit uncertain. It is at least as relevant as those animated "adaptations" set in space for with Tom and Jerry.--Bellerophon5685 (talk) 16:40, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Kipling
Hi. The Kipling short story existed when I plugged it into the template. Must have disappeared in the time between your and mine edits. Fame is fleeting, ole Rudyard used to say (or not). Thanks for finding the quick deletion. Randy Kryn 20:34, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
 * It seems to be back on the template along with another short story. Randy Kryn 11:33, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

Lists on templates add to the pages
Hi. You asked a question of why the topic is being discussed. Here is an example. A couple of editors convinced the head of the Zoo project to remove the Zoos template from all the zoo pages, pages which are listed on a "List of zoos" included in the template. The zoo template seems to be at the heart of the discussions taking place, and the issue has been taken out of the hands of the people commenting and the pages, in the words of an editor, have "been cleaned". You love templates, one of the few people that do, and I ask that you take another look at it knowing that the template has now been removed from over 1,000 very relevant articles. Thanks.

 * The Wikipedia talk:Categories, lists, and navigation templates discussion. If this is not passed then I'd assume some editors will be doing mass deletions of thousands of template, which is what has already happened on the Zoo articles at the request of an editor who took biodirectional as not to mean items on lists which are included on the template. A good list will list items which could be on the subject template, but they are put into lists regarding the subject (such as entries on Cultural depictions of John F. Kennedy are items which the template John F. Kennedy fits well. Randy Kryn 12:33, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
