| Not only is there a shitload of superfluous text on the template page (that, while noincluded, is still called on every time this is used on a page), it is designed to be regularly updated (whenever you go on/off-line), meaning extra server work whenever this happens <small>-- [[User:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">boxy</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Boxy|<span style="color: Red">talk</span>]] • [[The Rules|teh rulz]]</sup> 13:46 12 April 2009 (BST)</small>

| :I briefly read a recent administration protection case similar to that, and I gathered that it was healthy for the server if the superfluous information was put on the page via a template. Was I wrong? I only skimmed through the case. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}}{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/status}} 14:43, 12 April 2009 (BST)

| :::Phew! I was actually thinking, I could have either been right, and helped the server, or dead wrong, and hurt the server even more without knowing it. Thank god it was the former :S{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}}{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/status}} 14:53, 12 April 2009 (BST)

| :::The thing is, you might be right, but I used the hypothesis about the templated ''noinclude'' information and I templated the statuses, the code and everything. Basically, every aspect of this system is templated, so, lets say, editing the 'superfluous information' template twice a day should have the exact same affect as editing my status twice a day. {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig}}{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/status}} 13:44, 17 April 2009 (BST)

| ::::Well, no. When you update the superfluous text, that only triggers one update since it's only included on this page (and the noinclude tags prevent it spreading further). When you update the status, that triggers lots of updates since that ''is'' included lots of times on lots of pages. The software then has to update all of those pages. {{User:The_Rooster/Sig}} 15:28, 17 April 2009 (BST)
