Template talk:tpi-noun

I was unaware of this template until today, and thus the vast majority of our Tok Pisin terms do not use it. In all cases, it gives exactly the same output as   and is therefore quite redundant. Originally, it was created to display the plural form of nouns (as its outdated documentation still claims), even though they are regularly formed by placing in front of the noun (we do not have entries for Tok Pisin plurals because they would all be SOP). It is used in so few places that I will replace all instances of it manually if there is consensus for deleting this.--Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 17:42, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
 * No, not again. We've had this kind of discussion with already. strong keep. -- Liliana • 20:02, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't see how that is related. In Finnish, it may actually make a difference for certain nouns; in Tok Pisin, it gives an identical output in every case. --Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 20:14, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I create new templates for languages even if they show the same as . keep. 12:19, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I seem to think one argument that's been used in the past is there's no way to add additional features to make it more useful if we delete it first. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:23, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
 * What additional features would we add? Tok Pisin nouns do not decline or inflect in any way, never have diacritics or orthographical messiness, and have standard headwords. --Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 18:32, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
