Simply a section header reading "Notes". It actually takes fewer characters to type  than it is to type  — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 18:11, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Though well-intended, this template's only purpose is to provide a scrollable section for References sections, which violates WP:SCROLL. Jeffro 77 (talk) 05:15, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep but maybe add a tracking category or something that will make the template display an error message or not display at all if used in mainspace - WP:SCROLL applies to article content only, and I can see this potentially being useful in userspace or on talk pages (for example, in editprotected requests that involve a long-ish list of refs). That said, this should not be used in main (article) space. Maybe the addition of code such as  (mabe with a subst: or two thrown in there) would help track use of the template in article space so it can be quickly removed? — Preceding signed comment added by Cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 20:06, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Maybe. The template was only recently created by User:Rodejong, which he immediately applied to a bunch of articles (not being aware of WP:SCROLL). It doesn't seem that the original author intends to use it anywhere else, and he has since indicated that he's happy for it to be deleted (see User_talk:Rodejong). However, I agree that it doesn't preclude other users from applying the template in other namespaces. I have advised Rodejong of the potential of adding a note to the template to not use it in articles, so that's probably the way to go .-- Jeffro 77 (talk) 04:12, 20 March 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete — See previous discussion for Scrollref, deleted in 2007. If scrolling is useful for talk pages, then the feature can be added to Reflist-talk. -— Gadget850 (Ed)  talk 23:18, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Given that this was both designed and deployed to do something that we don't want it would seem counterproductive to keep this around. I don't consider the theoretical positive use of it on other namespaces to be a compelling argument to keep it. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward: not at work) - talk 09:50, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

The result of the discussion was Keep Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 02:21, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Delete. A copy of tobacco control movement and it is not a useful template. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 00:38, 19 March 2011 (UTC) RDBrown (talk) 02:24, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Now reverted to the citation it was before the BOT misbehavior or vandalism.
