Per a discussion about Template:Nintendo franchises here, I really don't think this template provides anything useful to the reader. Also, per the previous discussion, it seems slightly POV for someone to decide whether or not a so-called "franchise" should be included. Axem Titanium 22:34, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Most of what is on the list contained in the template are obviously considered franchises. Square Enix is not like Nintendo when it comes to franchises. Decimus Tedius Regio Zanarukando 10:00, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
 * But in light of its usefulness, do you think it's even necessary to be able to jump from say Drakengard to Star Ocean? The template itself has limited use since people would rarely have that sort of need. The more likely reaction would be either to go to the Square Enix page and click a link there or simply search for it. I don't see why this template is necessary when a category would suffice.

 * It is necessary to be able to jump from like Final Fantasy to Dragon Quest and vice versa, and to jump to Seiken Densetsu and to SaGa. The template is a shortcut for going between Square Enix franchises and to the company article itself.  It makes the navigation easier. Decimus Tedius Regio Zanarukando 03:29, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Your reply doesn't address the question of chances of this actually occurring. Axem Titanium 00:43, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. What is the point of the category page if there is a template like this one?  If people wanted to jump from one series to another, they probably already know the game is from square-enix, or at least will be intelligent enough to go to the category page to look for other games.  A template like this is just useless and waste loading time and page space. MythSearcher 12:47, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
