If I recall correctly, we don't have templates just for users. Should this be deleted?

Do you have a reason to say no? I think it should be deleted. Very few people seem to use it anyway. Fawfulfury65

Only one person uses it. To me, this seems really useless. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Alot of people use it. and we do have a another template. Gone template? ring a bell? GalladeBlades

Two people isn't a lot. And only one person uses the gone template. There's no point to having these templates. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Maybe users just don't know about it. I think we should keep it. If y'all care about deleting it so much make a TPP out of it. Bowser's luma

Really? A notice template for users only? If is mainly user oriented, I say we should delete. And if you really want a template like this, I suggest you make it yourself in your userpage. If you can make it yourself in your userpage, then I say this template is useless.

1. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) There's really no reason to have this template if you can make it yourself. And notice templates should be just mainspace only.
2. Mario4Ever (talk) Per proposal.
3. Superfiremario (talk) We shouldn't have user templates like this
4. LeftyGreenMario (talk) Although it is funny, it doesn't help the wiki in any way. Besides, we can make our own templates, right?
5. Mariomario64 (talk) A few days back, I was actually thinking of making a proposal or something to delete this, since it seems kinda useless. Per BLOF and LGM.
6. Bop1996 (talk) My initial reaction went something like, "What about all those users that are using this template?" After I used the "What Links Here" button however, I discovered that the only user using it is Walkazo, and she's returning before the deadline of this TPP... So yeah, I think there is not a good reason to keep it.
7. Reddragon19k (talk) Lose it! Per all.
8. Zero777 (talk) It shouldn't even be asked, per all.

Don't Delete

1. Phoenix (talk) This template is perfectly acceptable to have around, I see no viable reason whatsoever to remove it.
2. UltraMario3000 (talk) I do agree. And most users use this anyways.
3. Goomba's Shoe15 (talk) having this template causes no harm to this site there really isn't a reason to remove it
4. MrConcreteDonkey (talk) - Per Phoenix.
5. DKPetey99 (talk) I don't see any harm in having this template.
6. DK and Diddy Kong vs Bowser and Bowser Jr. (talk) Per all.

Commentary

It can't be used in mainspace? Why Mario no get vacation time? Xzelion^ETC

Shoot. I reworded it. Ray Trace^(T|C)

If this is deleted, does that mean {{Gone}} is deleted, too. I need that template in case I get angry again! DKPetey99^TCE

Probably. Just create a status box in your userpage and say that you're gone. You don't need that template unless you're lazy, but laziness is bad. Ray Trace^(T|C)

DKPetey99^TCE

No, it's the "template" as a separate userpage that aren't allowed. There's no rule saying you cannot implement it into your userpage. Ray Trace^(T|C)

Since it's pending deletion, I will put up the to be deleted template. DKPetey99 19:43, 12 May 2011 (EDT)

@Supporters - Well, the reason that Walkazo is the only user that is currently using the template is because she's probably the only user who's gone right now. Of course it's not going to be used by everyone at the present moment, I mean, what are the odds that everyone goes on vacation (or wherever) at the same exact time? Also, anyone can recreate any template on their userpage if they know the coding for it, that doesn't mean that we should get rid of every template because of that...

What about Lu-igi board?--UM3000

But I don't understand the point of having a template like this if we can just make it ourselves. And notice templates should be reserved mainly for main space. Of course it does no harm, but it is not beneficial either, unlike the rest of the other notice templates. Ray Trace^(T|C)

What says notice templates should be preserved just for the mainspace? It is beneficial, as, if people would actually use it, it would let people know when they're going and when they'll be back. If we had to make it ourselves, that could be too difficult for some users, and way too much hard work. This is much more efficient. MrConcreteDonkey 17:36, 18 May 2011 (EDT)

My thoughts exactly.
