What is this for?

Why does this template exist? It just seems to duplicate the "characters" template, while excluding Cylons. --Peter Farago 15:59, 2 May 2007 (CDT)

I just wondered the same. This is the very definition of clutter. All it does is duplicate the information already in the character list. Also, what other template displays this? All the character pages just use "{{Characters}}", but this is still invoked somehow. Anyways, I vote to delete this. --Serenity 14:53, 26 July 2007 (CDT)
