There are literally thousands of templates in Special:WantedTemplates that are subpages of this. The category and, I assume, the system was developed and administered by User:Kephir, who has not contributed since September, 2016. I doubt that it was ever a good idea to use redlinked templates (or redlinked categories) in this way. Can we eliminate this entire template/module system?

It's ugly but I guess it's the only way to keep track of things when it is technically undesirable to use categories. —Suzukaze-c◆◆ 22:19, 29 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

Lots of modules use it. You can find most examples by searching module: insource:"module:debug track". — Eru·tuon 05:22, 23 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
Special:WantedTemplates is pretty cluttered. At the moment, only 735 of the wanted templates are not tracking templates. Some of the tracking templates are generated by a rule (like headword/sc/redundant/Thai‏‎) and more than a hundred each seem to be generated by certain modules or templates (Module:headword: 582; Module:ru-noun: 531; Module:ru-adjective: 445; Module:links: 380; Module:ugly hacks: 333; Template:inflection of: 254; Module:ar-headword: 236; Module:number list: 235; Module:ru-verb: 195; Module:compound: 121; Template:descendant: 116; total: 3428). — Eru·tuon 06:30, 23 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
This system is extremely important for debugging modules and shouldn't be removed. Benwing2 (talk) 16:49, 23 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Kept. The system is in wide use and no replacement was proposed. —Keφr 10:04, 17 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
