Good idea to create this template. Although it might have been good to consult a bit before linking to it on the db-attack template. Pascal.Tesson 03:16, 27 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I think this template (and any future progeny) should have the parser functions removed. Defamation is a serious issue with the possibility of Wikipedia being roped into a legal mess. As it stands, an attack article on a named person exists (hopefully for a very short time) and then is deleted with the record of the defamation hidden from all but administrators and in the buried deletion log. We should not be in the business of publishing on talk pages through this template a permanent public record announcing the name of real individuals who have been attacked.--Fuhghettaboutit 17:29, 18 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
