 * Films by year

looking at 1970s in film we have three different navigation methods, so I purpose deleting at least one of the three, and this one seems like the least useful, but I am open to other suggestions. Frietjes (talk) 20:05, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Rebuild as film by decade -- 65.94.76.126 (talk) 04:33, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
 * It's plainly impractical to continue to maintain a navbox on a per-year basis. If there is a compelling argument to rebuild for decades then so be it, but usually we simply use next-previous. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 09:32, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

 * NewTitle

I like hacking around the limitations as much as the next guy, and, in fact, I may very well use some of the tricks from this template for some future userspace fun, but I don't think that something like this should be in templatespace. Any legitimate use is aready covered by DISPLAYTITLE, meaning that the only area it has an advantage in is spoofing articles' titles, which would pretty much only be useful for vandalism.  — PinkAmpers  &#38;  ( Je vous invite à me parler )  07:29, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Oh. Umm. Okay. Would you like it moved into your userspace? — PinkAmpers  &#38;  ( Je vous invite à me parler )  07:34, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes. I think I will get it there myself. —S yɛd  Шαм iq  Aнм ɛd  Hαsнм i  (тα l к) 07:36, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

 * The Hot sex barnstar

Serves no realistic purpose in developing the encyclopedia. Sexual content is obviously a valid encyclopedic topic, but Wikipedia is not a porn site and "hot sex" is not an objective sufficiently congruent with Wikipedia's core purpose to merit this particular form of artistic expression in the template space. Humorous or not, it is needlessly provocative (and also orphaned). --Eloquence* 06:56, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
