Template:Adr
- Template:Adr (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
A truly pointless template, trying to replace the widespread and largely well understood use of WP:PIPELINKS with yet another template.
MediaWiki and Wikicode has a reputation for unfriendliness, true. Piped links are one aspect of this. But where Wikicode is unfriendly it is almost always when it presents more than one way of doing something, and flips syntax modes between them. This template makes things worse, not better.

Template:Concerns and controversies at the Olympics
- Template:Concerns and controversies at the Olympics (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Entirely redundant to Template:Olympic_Games_controversies and mostly made up of redlinks. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:13, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
- keep, but remove the redlinks. at the time of this post, this search shows that the links are not replicated in Template:Olympic_Games_controversies. Frietjes (talk) 13:58, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
