Template:RS500Albums

 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the template below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the template's talk page or in a deletion review).

The result of the discussion was delete. Plastikspork ―Œ (talk) 03:06, 26 April 2018 (UTC) Consensus has dictated that the entire list of 500 albums may be a copyright violation so the attempt to do the same via a template seems to be an attempt to circumvent that. I still wouldn't be sure a NavBox is the best way to do this when, if it was allowed, a list article would be better than placing this in the articles for each album so one could navigate from #405 on the list to #498. I also noticed that many of the articles reference a different position than what the position in the navbox, so which list is being used?

 * Delete all. Whether or not this is a copyvio, we don't need a navbox for this.  -- wooden  superman  13:34, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. I was looking at the RS500 page and noticed the RS500 401-500 template was unfinished and had a red link to RS500 301-400, so I looked in the talk page and elsewhere to see if there was a reason for this; I couldn't find one so I thought I was being helpful by finishing 401-500 and making 301-400. Clearly this was not the case, these templates seem pretty redundant anyway as the list can be found on the Rolling Stone website anyway which is linked on the page. In answer to which list was being used, it was whichever is on the Rolling Stone website, linked on the page (500 this one) for at least 301-420 (the bit I contributed).
