The members of this navbox have no reasonable or defined relation to each other based on the topic, and thus no need for inter-linking in this way. Some identify more as "anarchists without adjectives" than others (phrased not used at all in some of the members' articles). The members are already linked by a category, which is suitable for their loose connection. czar 17:41, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

Too little content ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 12:02, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
- Can you please point me to the particular policy that mandates a minimum amount of content for a navbox? I was unable to find one and per WP:NAVBOX "Navigation templates are particularly useful for a small, well-defined group of articles" and "templates with a large number of links are not forbidden, but can appear overly busy and be hard to read and use". Thanks, Mifter Public (talk) 13:38, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
- Passing through—I've seen "three" used as the minimum, but not sure it has been codified or just standard practice czar 18:31, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Not enough links....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 14:03, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
- Again, as mentioned above, what policy/substantive discussion states there is a minimum amount of links needed for a navbox? Noting that current policy states that navboxs are "particularly useful for a small, well-defined group" saying there are not enough links sounds to me somewhat like WP:IDONTLIKEIT. If we want to introduce a floor on the number of links for a navbox I have no issues (nor do I if this template is deleted because of this discussion) but I believe a wider discussion would be appropriate versus piecemealing at TfD with an unwritten rule.

- delete, redundant navigation. the band is and albums are well-linked, and the albums are linked to each other through the album succession links in the infoboxes. Frietjes (talk) 14:27, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per Frietjes. Not useful for navigation as already linked in each article. Galobtter (pingó mió) 19:00, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

Unused, promotional template created as part of apparent spam walled garden. The "events" listed are not stand-alone articles, but links to sections of the same article. Created by Special:Contributions/JMichael22 currently indef-blocked for abusing multiple accounts. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:21, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
- delete, we don't need subnavigation between sections of the various Bellator events. Frietjes (talk) 14:25, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
