[edit] Objections

A similar attribution, category:Wikipedians with article, was nominated for deletion May 16, 2005 and deleted a week later. The deleted page says:

This is a category of articles (in the main namespace) that are biographies of wikipedians, both active as well as retired.

Wikipedia:Wikipedians with articles has been created with the intention of replacing this self-referential category.

Isn't this self-referential too? -Willmcw 05:54, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] TfD debate

This template survived a TfD debate. The discussion can be found here. -Splash^talk 16:26, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Note: reading the TfD debate, it seems agreed that the template should go on talk pages, not article pages. - Andre Engels 08:06, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

This template survived another tfd debate. The discussion can be found here. —freak(talk) 05:25, Nov. 9, 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sortkey

I've added a new parameter. 2 is a sortkey for the category. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 15:28, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Subst

Should this template be subst'ed? The example code seems to indicate not, but I've seen some other wikipedians explicitly subst'ing it. -- Bovineone 21:46, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
