Incomplete[edit]

Any reason why there is only one single listed? There are plenty of others at Category:Gary Glitter songs.

There is also one song in Category:Gary Glitter albums not listed: Remember Me This Way (album)

Per WP:TOOSHORT, many pages on WP are created by volunteers, and start out as stubs. If you feel that there should be a longer page, then start one.--Jax 0677 (talk) 21:45, 18 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Except that this is a template not a stub. WP:TOOSHORT does not apply and a better effort should be done by the creator to make a complete and adequate navbox. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 08:36, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well yes... Jax may have got some of the details wrong... but I think what he wanted to say is "why don't you expand it yourself?", which is a perfectly reasonable question. I think I mostly wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. But it looks like I wasn't so I will do the expansion now. Yaris678 (talk) 12:56, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I understand but why create hundreds of templates that meet some arbritrary requirement per WP:NENAN and move on to the next one rather than make a complete navbox from the getgo and put the onus on everyone else. This is much different than creating a stub article and letting it grow over time because not everyone has readily available sources to make a full-fledged article. The only resource Jax needs is the topic article of the templates he is making to complete a adequate navbox. His attitude is "this should be here, but I'm only going to put in minimal effort so it should be good enough". --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 23:38, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
