Why does this template exists if exactly the same category is present and used? Does the reader need to be distracted by colorful box when looking for actual information? Pavel Vozenilek 22:52, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Pavel! Categories only contain existing articles, a template (or a list for that matter) also includes those that do not yet exist but should definitely be created. It is easier to navigate through a template than it is via a category. And, of course, templates are pretty :) For additional points in favor of "colored boxes", see Wikipedia:Navigational templates. Hope this answers your questions. Best, —Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 04:29, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
