Template talk:nl-interj

This template has no parameters.

RFD discussion: July–November 2020
User:Rua deleted it because "it did nothing special". There doesn't appear to have ever been a discussion about that.

Please restore it. It is confusing and inconsistent that xx-interj exists for 90+ languages but not for Dutch. Alexis Jazz (talk) 16:20, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * What functionality do you propose that would make it do more than just ? And do we want to keep all the other 90+ templates that do nothing else? —Rua (mew) 16:38, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * If you want that, restore nl-interj and nominate all the xx-interj templates for deletion. I won't support that btw, but the most important thing is to be consistent. At any rate, xx-interj is easier to remember. Alexis Jazz (talk) 18:04, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * There may be some language-specific interjection templates that do something special that the Dutch one didn't. And nl is not hard to remember by any stretch of the imagination. —Mahāgaja · talk 20:24, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * The English one does nothing special. The Chinese one does nothing special. The Esperanto one does nothing special. The German and Spanish ones only seem to do things like on hey, which could be applied to any language with punctuation. But even without arguments for memory or easier typing, it is practical to aim for consistency. I can't remember every single template we use and template use changing depending on the language is even worse. I just look at an existing English entry and try to adept that for a Dutch entry. So if English entries use en-interj and interjections exist in Dutch (which they do), I expect nl-interj to work. Now I potentially could get behind an effort to transition these to,  and so on. But unless and until that happens, undelete nl-interj. Alexis Jazz (talk) 22:28, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * That's far more of an argument to delete the ones that do nothing special than to restore the Dutch one. But orphaning widely used templates takes time. —Mahāgaja · talk 05:57, 11 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep deleted, per Mahagaja. - -sche (discuss) 22:29, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
