Is this category really necessary? [[User:GreenDisaster|GreenDisaster]] 14:55, 30 March 2012 (EDT)

:I agree, I think it should be deleted. {{User:Tails777/sig}}

==Delete Category:Chess Pieces==
{{Settled TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|green|delete 10-0}}
This category seems pointless in my opinion. One, it's a small category, composed of only 13 articles. Two, it's a category comprising the characters that appear as pieces for a chess game that most of the articles give a single line to, if they even mention it. It seems too insignificant to have a category for it. Three, how many people actually use this category? It just doesn't seem that useful.

===Delete===
#{{User|GreenDisaster}} Per proposal.
#{{User|LightningBlue}} Not enough pages and this is a single game.
#{{User|Super-Yoshi}} ''Really'' minuscle category, don't need it.
#{{User|Lindsay151}} Per all.
#{{User|Tails777}} Per what I said above.
#{{User|Mario4Ever}} Per proposal.
#{{User|Walkazo}} - Thirteen isn't ''horrible'' as far as size goes (originally, there were categories for every type of chess piece: now ''that'' was excessive), but when you look at the articles, it's the ugly ducking of the categories: it would be better to just not have it around.
#{{User|Commander Code-8}} This category may as well be called "important characters in the Mario series". Per all
#{{User|Blue CosmicToad}} ''Aughh!! Thirteen is the unlucky number! Begone, foul category!'' '''...Per all.'''
#{{User|Vommack}} This is some kind of cruel joke here, right?

So instead of having a category for the chess pieces, we have a [[Template:MarioChess|template]]. I'm not sure if that's better or worse. [[User:GreenDisaster|GreenDisaster]] ([[User talk:GreenDisaster|talk]]) 20:06, 27 July 2012 (EDT)
:Worse (imho). If a category's unnecessary, a template is overkill. Not to mention how its design breaks the whole colour-coded nav template uniformity scheme we've been aiming for... - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 20:21, 27 July 2012 (EDT)
