It's not a bad template, but it's not really that useful for a shortcut, when typing <nowiki>{{Unused}}</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>{{d|Unused}}</nowiki> only saves typing two characters, is anyone really going to care about having to type extra two characters on a maintenance template? It also has no additional utility like {{t|Replaced}} and {{t|Duplicate}} do in making it more efficient to link the replacing/duplicate image. I won't oppose it, but I won't support it either, and there is maybe something to be said about avoiding confusing inexperienced users by having excessive deletion templates. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 01:27, June 14, 2023 (EDT)

Forums: Index Proposals Unused template
Proposed.png This discussion is in regards to a proposed change on SmashWiki. The discussion must first meet with a consensus before it is implemented.

A shortcut template for unused media could be used on this wiki. I’ve been seeing media going unused within the past year, so I decided to create {{Unused}} for unused media. However, I saw on the discord server that there needs to be a proposal first. So, what are your opinions? Jordan2009, the Sora Main Talk here 00:57, June 14, 2023 (EDT)

It's not a bad template, but it's not really that useful for a shortcut, when typing {{Unused}} instead of {{d|Unused}} only saves typing two characters, is anyone really going to care about having to type extra two characters on a maintenance template? It also has no additional utility like {{Replaced}} and {{Duplicate}} do in making it more efficient to link the replacing/duplicate image. I won't oppose it, but I won't support it either, and there is maybe something to be said about avoiding confusing inexperienced users by having excessive deletion templates.
