Wanted templates

We have a backlog in Special:WantedTemplates. This contributes to further backlogs, since we don't have pages in need of cleanup in the proper categories, which would help facilitate cleanup work. Can we safely assume at this point that Scribunto will never be installed (despite the fact that the security concerns were addressed at mediawikiwiki:Extension_talk:Scribunto#Security_concerns_55170)? If so, we'll need to come up with our own templates rather than copying them from Wikipedia. So, what style do you want to use? Basically derivatives of Template:Cleanup, or something else?

I am open to innovation so long as it looks good and works (and is not too difficult for wiki beginners) We can't make things too complicated. --Etenne (talk) 00:17, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
Is it worth investing time in creating these non-Scribunto templates to substitute for what Wikipedia implements using Scribunto, or is another attempt going to be made to get the wiki council to approve Scribunto? Lysander (talk) 03:30, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
