Template talk:Doors

Necessity
I'll extend my comments about Template:Cards for this template as well. In short: this template is unnecessary and unhelpful, its job already being covered by Category:Doors without any added benefit. I believe that it should be deleted. Any thoughts? 14:39, 31 July 2017 (EDT)
 * I don't know. While cards didn't really feel all that important, there are many different types of doors in the Mario series. I think this one can stay. 15:35, 31 July 2017 (EDT)
 * Navigation templates shouldn't be based on the importance of its subject, only the necessity of the template itself. Besides, Category:Cards and Category:Doors currently have the exact same number of entries, and even then, the door category includes Trapdoor, which is not a door at all, Toy Block Door, which is a lot more like a gate with an elaborate lock than a traditional door, and Fence, which is just silly. Some of the other articles also don't seem like they're worth covering: the Magic Door is hardly magical, it just takes Mario to different locations like any other door (at the very least, it should be merged with Warp Door), and Key Door is literally a door with a lock. Dimensional Door and Goal door are also so mundane that I'd be fine with simply deleting them. There's a proposal that covers this kind of stuff, and Door was cleared out on similar grounds. None of this is particularly relevant to this template, but since you brought up the many varieties of doors, I thought I'd share my thoughts on the matter. 16:15, 31 July 2017 (EDT)

Delete this template
Is this template helping anyone? Is there any added convenience of navigation due to the existence of this navigation template? Besides everything that I've said before (read above), we already have Category:Doors, which presents the exact same information in the exact same manner. This isn't a question of whether or not doors are notable enough to warrant a template, this is simply a matter of the necessity of the template, and I'm arguing that it's certainly not necessary.
