Just to Make it Clear

I agree, a brief appearance does not an employee make. -- Sir Grodus

Delete this template
This is a template meant to round up fourteen individuals into one convenient-to-navigate area. From the surface, there doesn't seem to be much that's wrong here. After all, there are plenty of templates with fewer entries, such as Template:Octoombas. However, this template is not for a specific species, but rather, it's for a group of people that all work for the same organization. Again, it's not necessarily like this is without precedence; Template:Subspacearmy serves a similar function. I do not want this template to be deleted for its small amount of entries, nor for the way that it has been organized; simply put, I find this template unnecessary. In any of the nav. templates based on WarioWare games, there is always a section for the main characters. The characters that are listed in this section? These are the employees of WarioWare, Inc. As you may have realized, this template is also for the employees of WarioWare, Inc. Am I the only one that finds it redundant to have multiple templates essentially repeating the same information? It's understandable that between WarioWare: Twisted! and WarioWare: Touched!, some characters will reappear, and thus, it's our duty to place them in the appropriate nav. templates, but is it really necessary to have an entire template solely for these reappearing characters?

No Delete

 * 1) Some characters might not be in every game so this is a nice template to have.

@Tails777: As I explicitly said, the number of entries in this template was irrelevant as to why I wanted to deleted it. I made a point of saying this numerous times. I even specifically mentioned a template with fewer entries than this one. Thus, your vote really doesn't make sense.


 * I still don't see anything wrong with it. It serves as a template that shows the WarioWare characters. I still don't understand why it should be deleted.
 * It's not like it shows all of them. It only holds a very specific selection of WarioWare characters, and even then, it's incomplete. Said characters already have places in other templates, and in al of these templates, the characters are outlined in the same manner; as main characters. The point of navigational templates is grouping together characters of matching groups (such as games, species, or, in the case of the babies, defining characteristics), but why bother having a template for one of these groups when said group is already clearly demonstrated in another template? It's the reason why we see certain templates be merged; if a certain aspect doesn't merit exclusion, it gets bunched back into the group. With all of that said, I will ask you: why do you think deleting this template is unnecessary?
 * Well this is listing the employees of the WarioWare company. But this is the only template showing characters working for a place, but that's probably because they're aren't many detailed companies out there. Looking at Mario's Toy Company, we don't know about specific workers there (aside from Mario and a few Toads), but if it was more descriptive and actually showed more people within the company, I'm sure we'd have a template that would show the workers there. Similarily with the Subspace Army template, that is also a useful and necessary template because it is showing the members of a group, ALL of the members to be exact. What I'm saying is that having a template showing members of certain notable groups such as the Subspace Army and WarioWare Employees isn't a bad thing to me.
 * You've been skirting around the one point that I've been trying to hammer in; this template is unnecessary because it repeats information that is already on other templates. I never once claimed that it should be deleted due to being a template for a group, and I certainly never claimed that it should be deleted due to the lackluster amount of entries. How much more clear do I have to make that?
