Bad idea. We don't create cast navboxes. 98.230.192.179 (talk) 00:04, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Did the IP user even bother to click the article it links to and see that it's not just some cast for a movie or a TV show (like Template:SNLCurrentCast or Template:AmericanMorningHosts), it is actually just as helpful for navigation like Template:NBC News personalities, Template:ABC News Personalities, Template:CNN Anchors,Template:Fox News personalities, Template:Al Jazeera America anchors and reporters, and Template:CBS News Personalities.--RioHondo (talk) 03:20, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I think this kind of navbox sets a bad precedent, for the same reason we don't have cast navboxes. However, along with the additional examples above, there are many others like this for reality shows, etc, which also are a bad idea, that should all be deleted under the same reasoning. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:19, 4 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not enough links to make navigation worthwhile (two linked coaches or less). ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 15:38, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Again, Rob doesn't cite a policy nor guideline which backs up his standards for "worthwhile navigation. Also, what if the boxes are deleted and the programs subsequently hire a third lacrosse coach soon afterwards? Tom Danson (talk) 16:01, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- See WP:EXISTING. While it isn't written into a guideline, there's a plethora of TfD precedent that four links is a minimum for navboxes. If there are more coaches in the future, the navbox can be undeleted. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 05:43, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - See also WP:NAVBOX which is clear that navboxes are for navigation and to "group articles". ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 01:38, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
