* In future, if someone wants to use {{tlx|delete}} with a template, simple insert it between the <nowiki><noinclude></nowiki> tags. Still, because templates affect multiple pages, [[user:Shambala108|Shambala108]] is quite right to have asked for the discussion to take place here in the forums. | * In future, if someone wants to use {{tlx|delete}} with a template, simple insert it between the <nowiki><noinclude></nowiki> tags.

Also, we need to remember that media are different. It's not inherently wrong to create a navboxes of, say, directors and confine it to just TV. TV directors and audio directors are not the same thing, even though they may have the same title. I think it's also possible to argue that some variety of species — like a particular type of Dalek — existed only in the comics, so a navbox may be forced by, well, ''reality'' to describe a single medium. Or at least to exclude some types of media. I mean, if you created a template like {{tlx|Fitz' lovers}}, you're pretty much confining yourself to novels. I guess my point is that you shouldn't fail to create a ''useful'' template just because it happens to be about a subject that is mainly confined to one medium. | Also, we need to remember that media are different.
