The comment was sometime back - another sysop ultimately stopped my attempt to move the tables from the templatespace to the mainspace for that very reason; but again if you delete those templates (or move them depending on what's necessary), then I can fix all the links--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 23:32, 11 February 2008 (EST)

: (Iduan advised by e-mail that the sysop is no longer with us, and the conversation was off Conservapedia). The only references to where templates should be that I can find are:
:* [[Help:Creating templates]] says that " templates are ''normally'' created in the "Template" namespace" (my emphasis). I would consider this to be the nearest thing to a directive on the matter, and it clearly allows for exceptions.
:* [[Help:How to create a new article#Templates]] says to "Precede the name with the word "template" and a colon." However, I consider this to be a "how to" rather than a "must do", so it doesn't count.
:* For what it's worth, [[User talk:Philip J. Rayment/Archive 4#Templates]] is a brief conversation I had some time back with Tash on this very subject.
: So I'm not making policy here, but I'm saying that there's apparently no policy preventing a template being in a sub-page, and whilst we might not like that idea normally, this seems to me a pretty clear case of it being appropriate.
: Please list the templates to be moved on [[User:Philip J. Rayment/Article renaming project|this page]], and you can also mark there when the links are fixed up.
