When a template is applied to an issue a separate copy of the template is added to the issue (as opposed to being linked to or referenced by the issue). If a template is later deleted from the templates list, copies of template that have been added to issues will remain. If the template items contain mentions to users, this will reflect in the resulting checklist items and may also result in a notification being sent to the mentioned users.
