			::: Reviewing the pages which contain the template <nowiki>{{draft}}</nowiki>, they are all as dead as the dodo. I feel a "call to arms" would be futile. Also, on reflection, [[OggPCM]] and [[Channel mapping examples]] are equally dead. I will add <nowiki>{{draft}}</nowiki> to these, plus three others. This will make [[:Category:Drafts]] and <nowiki>{{draft}}</nowiki> equivalent. [[User:Martin.leese\|Martin Leese]] ([[User talk:Martin.leese\|talk]]) 08:08, 21 August 2015 (PDT)
