:I feel that, at the very least, we should rig the template so that, if anyone tries to use <nowiki>{{g|}}</nowiki> to link to [[Pokémon]], we have it display "Lazy, lazy!" (or a similar message) instead, as well as add any page that uses it this way put into a special category; the category would note that the pages in it use the template improperly and that the link should be changed to a proper link. We can work in other lazy uses into displaying similar messages the future, but at the very least, we should get rid of the most lazy use now. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 03:07, 16 April 2009 (UTC) | :I feel that, at the very least, we should rig the template so that, if anyone tries to use <nowiki>{{g|}}</nowiki> to link to [[Pokémon]], we have it display "Lazy, lazy!"

::After reading this and getting a response on the {{bt|List of link templates}} page, I understand what the template is for now. I knew that using <nowiki>{{g|}}</nowiki> will result in that incorrect link, which was why I link to the whole article <nowiki>[[Pokémon]]</nowiki> this way. I will admit that I started using the template incorrectly when I saw <nowiki>{{g|anime}}</nowiki> in episode articles. I'll go back and fix all of my episode summaries. By the way, can an admin change {{Template|DP episode}} to eliminate the <nowiki>{{g|anime}}</nowiki> in the first line? --[[User:Rockersk08|<font color="black">rock</font>]][[User talk:Rockersk08|<font color="blue">ersk</font>]][[Special:Contributions/Rockersk08|<font color="red">08</font>]] 16: | ::After reading this and getting a response on the {{bt|List of link templates}} page, I understand what the template is for now.
