Module talk:languages/stable

RFDO discussion: September 2014
This was created to hold languages whose information would be unlikely to change over time. But it hasn't been used yet, and I think it's more practical to leave things as they are: I'm not sure if the advantages (if there even are any) are worth the extra complexity. —CodeCat 12:14, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
 * 1) By using this module, looking up a language's data means loading two modules instead of just one. First the stable module has to be checked, before looking in the regular module. This actually makes things a bit slower rather than faster.
 * 2) It's easier for users to find the data if they can predict where it is. Right now we sort them by the number of characters in the code, and the first letter of the code. This is pretty straightforward and putting certain codes in the stable module would only complicate it.
 * I agree, delete. It has turned out that modifying widely used modules such as Module:languages is not as expensive as we had thought. --WikiTiki89 17:43, 17 September 2014 (UTC)
