This is a good idea, and I'd like more information about it. Do you basically distinguish between certain templates that you always put on the sense line and others that you always put on the inflection line, or is it more of a case-by-case basis thing? If a word has only one sense, do you always use the sense line, or are there still cases where you use the inflection line? (Etc.) Now that I think about it, I vaguely remember that you used the inflection line for {{no longer productive}}, and I think I reflexively moved those to the sense line when I "context"-template-ified them, but now I realize that that probably wasn't what you'd had in mind? —RuakhTALK 01:31, 28 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
- To answer your last question first, right, I intended it for the inflection line. See Category:Context labels for a classification of the context labels into five types, of which topical, grammatical, regional, and usage are relevant to this discussion. Of those, I tend to put topical labels on the definition line, and grammatical labels according to the following rule: If they apply equally to all senses, then on the inflection line; otherwise, on the definition line. Regional and usage labels I haven't been consistent about: in theory I'd like to treat them as I do grammatical labels, but I think I've mostly been putting them on the definition line anyway.—msh210℠ 16:54, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
- An example of the utility of inflection-line context tags is diff: I moved the rather lengthy tag to the inflection line in order to avoid repeating it twice.—msh210℠ 21:30, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
