--- Comment #10 from John Broughton <[email protected]> ---
Should there be "not recommended" parameters (I'd suggest something like "for
experts only" as a label; if something is "not recommended", why have it at
all?) should be marked as such by a label, when listed as parameters that
*could* be added. 

More generally, I don't think we need to worry much about really complex
templates, if (as suggested elsewhere) the template dialog box includes a link
to the documentation page for such templates. We don't need to worry much
because only editors who are really interested - and motivated to understand
the template - are likely to go beyond the parameters that are required and
suggested, with the possible exception of editors who (idiosyncratically) use a
less common parameter on a regular basis.

In short, a "required" and a "suggested" list (AND enforcing that the
"required" list be filled in) would be a huge win for the occasional user of
templates.
