TFD closings 

Thanks for helping out with clearing the TFD backlog. However, I hope you don't mind a couple of suggestions... 
If you close a decision as "keep", please edit the relevant template, remove the deletion notice, and add a link to the debate that resulted in keeping it.
If you close a decision as "delete", please list the relevant template in the holding cell at the bottom of TFD, so that it can be properly deprecated and deleted.
Please don't make closing statements as "keep until Mediawiki updated" unless you know that such an update is actually forthcoming.
Please don't invalidate votes because they refer to uselessness; lack of usability is a good reason for deprecating a template. However, as you correctly say, ugliness is not - that would be a reason for editing the template.
Yours, adiant_>|<
