 * Major English-language business magazines

Currently the only non-obvious inclusion criterion is that the magazine is actively publishing. There are hundreds of such magazines—see Category:Business magazines. I do not believe there are any objective criteria by which a useful and manageably small selection of these could be made. Psychonaut (talk) 23:22, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete I don't see how any reasonably objective criteria could be developed to define inclusion in this template. As remarked above, the cat does the same job better. --Randykitty (talk) 12:36, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

I really do not see the use of this template, since we already have Template:Miss Philippines winners in the Grand Slam pageants, Template:Miss Philippines-Earth titleholders, Template:Major International Pageants titleholders 2013, and Template:Miss Earth 2013 delegates. The template takes the winners of two competitions, whose only commonality is that they happen to be run by the same company. This is surely an example of WP:TEMPLATECREEP.
