:::::Regarding the substitution on {{t|Admin template}}... The Metabox template is set to automatically categorize any page that it is used on if that page is a template page. These are all grouped into [[:Category:Templates using Metabox]]. However, one unfortunate issue with this (that I have yet to find a solution for) is that ''if the template is used on other templates'', as is true with Admin Template, it will also automatically categorize the other templates into the Templates using Metabox category, even if those templates themselves don't use Metabox. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 19:18, September 27, 2013 (UTC)
 
==Conclusion==
I'm closing this thread down - it has been a month since a reply. I'm open to the idea of making the changes as outlined in the discussion above, but it may be at that point where it would need to be discussed by the community; I don't think I'm in the position to unilaterally change it. So, for the time being, I'm leaving it as-is, if for no other reason than to avoid confusion. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 01:36, October 29, 2013 (UTC)
