Delete Very little content; only used on one article, in 2005. Andy Mabbett | Talk to Andy Mabbett 09:08, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, not used at all. Its one use has been replaced with Infobox police officer. Wonder why it was thought necessary to specify occupation in an infobox for FBI Officers??? Bazj (talk) 18:57, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blatant misuse of template space. No one is supposed to be using templates for signatures. Delete. Pegasus «C¦T» 00:42, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Template:MacedonianBoy/Signature and Template:MacedonianBoySignature have been blanked and can be deleted. I would have placed a speedy tag but none seemed appropriate. The content has been moved to a user subpage. Balkan Fever^{not a fan? say so!} 11:22, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I note the move... "User" seems to be the appropriate namespace since this page is used only by a single user. But I still don't think it's right for a user to use templates, in user space or otherwise, in their sig. Must I move this discussion elsewhere? Pegasus «C¦T» 09:35, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both User:MacedonianBoy/Signature and Template:MacedonianBoySignature. On this point, Wikipedia:Signatures is unambiguous: "Transclusions of templates and parser functions in signatures ... are forbidden." The signature can be customised in Special:Preferences. –Black Falcon ^(Talk) 03:38, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
