Template talk:sv-compound

RFD discussion: March 2019
This template should not exist. It behaves exactly like except that it adds extra categories such as Category:Swedish compounds with is, Category:Swedish compounds with flak, etc. based on the components of the compound. Whether or not such categories should exist in general is potentially an arguable idea, but if implemented it should be done across all languages (or at the very least for a specified, coherent subset of languages, implemented using a list in Module:compound). A given language should not arbitrarily implement different behavior from other languages. There's nothing about Swedish compounds that is any different, for example, from English or German compounds, where such extra categories aren't created. On top of all this, the template itself is used on less than 50 pages, which is hardly all the pages that have Swedish compounds on them. If people agree, I can do the orphaning/deletion myself.

 * All correct. It was an experiment that did not catch on. Fix the pages, then remove the template. LA2 (talk) 11:38, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Done. Also deleted the various compound categories as well as Template:sv-compoundcat. Benwing2 (talk) 19:18, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Also Category:Swedish etymology templates, which contained only Template:sv-compound. Benwing2 (talk) 19:20, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
