I am by no means telling you not to leave a blank, it all depends on your company.

I hate, hate, hate to leave blanks when I know what it is. If you can, ask QA for verification if nothing else. Sorry couldn't be more helpful!

I noticed right away that you had fixed the templates and it was wonderful. I found each one I needed right away.
