The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


Redirects to Template:italbrac. Not used; I replaced all instances with {{italbrac}} about a week ago, and since nobody has used this in that time, that tells me it can be safely deleted. Furthermore (and not strictly on topic) I don't understand how {{italbrac}} and {{qualifier}} are not fully redundant to each other. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:47, 6 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

The difference between {{italbrac}} and {{qualifier}} is IMHO that one specifies the an explicit style (italic and in brackets) no matter what the functionality of the text is, while the other specifies the function of that text. I believe that the latter approach is much more useful, as Wiktionary's formating will most likely change over time. On the other hand a template defining the semantics can be very easily changed, i.e. with a bot.Matthias Buchmeier 18:29, 8 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
Keep this (old) template for six or twelve months to see if it's used in the mean while. If not, delete. A week is nothing.​—msh210 (talk) 18:15, 6 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
But it is two-letter, and those are reserved for 639-1 codes. -- Prince Kassad 19:43, 6 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
Someone (RU?) has mentioned that, as they're assigning three-letter codes now, it's highly unlikely that they'll assign any more two-letter ones. So I doubt this will be a problem. So if it's used, keep it, I say. (And if it's unused, delete it, and we'll know that in six or twelve months.)​—msh210 (talk) 19:54, 6 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
It is still possible, but only for languages which are not yet coded into ISO. For example, Montenegrin could get the language code {{cg}} if desired. -- Prince Kassad 20:02, 6 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
