 * Awake (TV series) cast

This template just lists cast members for a TV show, and it is added to each actors page. If we did this for every TV show, actor pages would be flooded with templates. While merging to Template:Awake (TV series) would be an alternative to deletion, a quick check of a handful of popular TV show templates shows that listing cast members on such a template is not the usual practice.Logical Fuzz (talk) 21:13, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Templates are the new categories -they're getting created en masse with little thought to propriety. As the nominator points out, it would be insanely counterproductive to allow templates for each show or film an actor had been in. ŞůṜīΣĻ ¹98¹ Speak 21:54, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete: As creator. Also nominate Template:Family Guy cast.  TBrandley   •&#32;  talk   •&#32;contributions 22:04, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - There is actually consensus not to include actors' in such navboxes. One of the reasons for this was that some actors could end up with hundreds of navboxes on their pages. Please don't ask me where that consensus was formed, it was a long time ago. --AussieLegend (talk) 06:53, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Where is it

Redundant to context. Geographic location is only one of many different pieces of context that are required for articles. Less than two dozen transclusions. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 10:52, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Weak agree In general I see no problem with having more specific templates to specify the more general ones. In the case of lead templates I agree with the nominator that this is not needed so much, although I think this template is not used much . Also, I find the name of this template a little simple, awkward. Debresser (talk) 23:56, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

Per precedent of previously deleted templates and, for the most part, redundant to Nicki Minaj and Nicki Minaj singles; not to mention the template for a "trilogy" in which the third part doesn't exist yet. Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 09:48, 11 June 2012 (UTC)

 * H&M

Inappropriate use of navbox. This is essentially performer-by-performance since it navigates people who were in H&M ad campaigns. Several of the pages, including Daria Werbowy, make no mention of H&M whatsoever. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 05:12, 11 June 2012 (UTC)


 * These pages are not realistically expected to link to each other, so a navbox isn't appropriate. What's more, this appears to be very region-specific at the moment and would probably become impossible to maintain if expanded to have global coverage.

Delete. Unneeded category. All it contains is two categories. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 02:07, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep, such templates are often used for station navboxes. I have rewrote it. -- Makecat  Talk  02:25, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is a standard navbox under development. (I don't understand what categories have got to do with it?) Sw2nd (talk) 17:24, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
 * keep, seems like a misunderstanding. I added some documentation and cleaned up the presentation to make it more clear how the template is used. 198.102.153.2 (talk) 23:55, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
