Template talk:Orphan

Created this because there are so many pages that are never linked to. It's hard to find them because nothing links to them. PurpleKiwi 05:15, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

IMHO this is just a lazy template, basically the same meaning as the stub template and unnecessary. --GRYPHON^tc 05:32, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

It's different than the Stub template. (but copied from it) The Stub tag is for articles that are too short. This one is for articles that are never seen. Some articles never get linked to and aren't in any categories. PurpleKiwi 22:04, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

If you are bothering to make an edit to add this template you should just be fixing the category instead and some articles won't have a lot of links naturally. There are already tools for this. --GRYPHON^tc 05:00, 15 October 2010 (CDT)

Wow! I didn't know that! Should I get rid of this? PurpleKiwi 17:06, 17 October 2010 (CDT)

But with the "Short pages" thing, we don't need the Stub category either. PurpleKiwi 17:15, 17 October 2010 (CDT)
