We don't make navboxes with poor coloring systems like this, especially ones that make it hard to read the text. That and since most of the character articles should be merged, most of this template is rather useless anyway. See the standard everywhere else for WP:ANIME franchises and this should be painfully apparent, and read WP:NAV. Sephiroth BCR ^(Converse) 18:26, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I noticed the color issues earlier. The red on black is not very readable, and looks garish in articles. I'd support stripping the custom colors all together and letting it use the template colors, then fixing links as the articles are merged fix. When the clean up is done, reevaluate the need for a template at all. AnmaFinotera (talk) 18:30, 1 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

After removing List of Black Order members and List of Earl of Millennium followers, the template contains six links (main page, author's page, chapters, episodes, characters, minor characters). Is the template really needed then? Itzjustdrama ^(drama?) 02:42, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is a borderline case IMO... I wouldn't be against its deletion, but I don't think I would spend the necessary time nominating it for deletion. —Dinoguy1000 19:31, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

...and now, I think it's firmly in the "unneeded" category. With only the main article, three lists, and the creator's page, strongly interlinking the articles would work much better than using this template on just four or five articles. Feel free to nominate it for deletion now. —Dinoguy1000 21:47, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
