:I completely '''support''' this. Those types of templates have been seen as an annoyance and just deleting them without having to go through an unnecessary deletion discussion is great. There's going to be more of these in the future anyways. - [[User:SimDestroyer|SimDestroyer]] ([[User talk:SimDestroyer|talk]]) 17:05, August 21, 2018 (UTC) |

Revision as of 00:25, 22 August 2018
Here's maybe the shortest forum thread intro I've ever written.
I think we ought to collectively agree that templates created as alternatives to existing templates, that are poorly-designed and don't fit within the wiki's theme, should be eligible for speedy deletion, without the need to engage in a deletion discussion. A current example would be Template:Standard Sim.
