Same as with "Batman actors". J Greb (talk) 23:06, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I found it to be useful actually. —ASPENSTI— TALK — CONTRIBUTIONS 20:48, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Actors should not be in navigation boxes. Navboxes should contain links that are relevant to each other. Two actors who have portayed Superman have little do with one another. BOVINEBOY 2008 ) 21:04, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Related to the Template:X-Men film series cast and crew and related noms below. The template is a "runaround" for the inability for there to be a category for these articles (as per numerous CfD consensus, "Actor by role" categories are not acceptable). The entire content of the template are actors who happened to portray or provide a voice for a specific character. This is very similar to the "Cast & Crew" templates in that it links biography articles by a tangential or trivial criteria. J Greb (talk) 23:06, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was redirect

Has never actually shown anything, always broken. Doesn't adhere to the suggested naming scheme (see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Namibia). Superseded by Template:Constituencies of the Caprivi Region. Pgallert (talk) 14:52, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment from nom: I created the new template, not being aware that this one exists because the articles with this template never displayed anything. Maybe a move / merge of histories is more appropriate but if I understood the help pages correctly, I might not be able to do this because there is now more that one edit to the new template, the destination of the move. If this is a bad listing at TfD, please let me know. --Pgallert (talk) 15:02, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Constituencies of the Caprivi Region as a shorter alternative name for the existing navbox. No need to merge histories because 1) the redirect page will retain its old history, and 2) it sounds like the new template was created without using anything from the old one, so the old contribution history isn't relevant to it. --RL0919 (talk) 23:37, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Same as with "X-Men film series cast and crew", though a cast list article does not seem to already exist. J Greb (talk) 12:21, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete and trout slap someone for this pointy and obvious attempt to evade consensus. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 14:32, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, again. -- Mike Allen talk · contribs 00:38, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per prior consensus against this type of template and the reasons why that I go on about at length here. To summarize briefly, allowing this type of navbox would create excessive template clutter at the bottom of the articles about the cast/crew. --RL0919 (talk) 02:35, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Created as a "runaround" in light of the consensus at WP:ACTOR to not include cast and crew in navigation boxes based on a "per production". A list article would be preferable, and in this instance already exists. There is also an issue with the "C&C" 'box, as constituted, doubeling up on the parent box on the character articles.

Completely redundant to Template:Steven Spielberg; no need for two -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 06:55, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as nominated. --Firefly&#39;s luciferase (talk) 04:37, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete The productions are noticed in the other template too. --Red-Blue-White (talk) 11:29, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Definitely redundant, and the other template is somewhat more commonly used (103 transclusions vs. 76 for the nominated template). --RL0919 (talk) 02:52, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Appears to be redundant to Antidepressants Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 03:38, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unused and redundant to the other, much more complete template. --RL0919 (talk) 04:51, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the plural. 76.66.192.35 (talk) 07:16, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Antidepressants. This is redundant, but it would be useful as an alternate name for the better template. — Gavia immer (talk) 00:46, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect is OK with me if that the consensus, but it seems unnecessary to redirect a completely unused name that only differs by one character at the end. --RL0919 (talk) 02:54, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
