Hello, Sonic News Network. I have a proposal for all of you today, and it is the discussion of whether or not we should continue having the continuity templates. First, hear me out: there templates are splendid and all, but there's several, major problems not only I, but also several other users have with it.

Because of the auto-category, the article will be sorted into something like "Archie Comics groups", but the article the banner is on already has the "Freedom Fighters" category, a subcategory of the "Archie Comics groups" category. For a simpler version, see below:


 * Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie)
 * With the banner template, it automatically places the article to "Archie Comics groups". But, the category "Freedom Fighters" is on the "Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie)" article and is a subcategory of the "Archie Comics groups".

You see what I mean? Subcategories are forced to be scrapped because of the templates. The banner templates are essentially upsetting the flexibility of the categories. So, we can go with two routes:


 * Either we can scrap the entire banner templates to save room in both the article and in the categories of the article. Or...
 * We could remove the auto-category the banner template provides for us.

So what do you think? I'm sorry if this doesn't sound professional at all, it's just too short and too confusing to go to detail.
