Retiring the Rhymes namespace
Hi. I see you recently created Rhymes:English/eɪtɪd, and just wanted to let you know that in 2021 August there was a discussion at Beer parlour/2021/August about replacing the Rhymes namespace (meaning all pages that start with "Rhymes:") with categories. I do not know whether anything will come of this, but my guess is that "Rhymes:" pages will eventually be deleted in favour of rhymes categories. In addition to linking to the "Rhymes:" pages, the template already automatically adds the pages it is on into these categories, and will sort by syllable count if you include the parameters documented at. - excarnateSojourner (talk | contrib) 18:01, 8 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I found the whole process confusing. But are you saying I shouldn't have created the page? That it's going to be automatically generated somehow?
 * One thing I know is wrong, is that I couldn't get the breadcrumbs to show properly so I duplicated the 'nav' line: "{rhymes nav|en|eɪ|t|ɪd}". Tocharianne (talk) 11:32, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I can see how it could be confusing to newcomers. What I'm saying is that if you chose to spend time creating Rhymes pages that's fine, but your work might be undone within the next year or so, so I would suggest continuing to add to pages (since this will be useful in any case), but not creating the Rhymes pages. The Rhymes pages are not created by bot, but the category pages (eg Category:Rhymes:English/aʊ) are created by bot, so there's no need to manually create those. I don't know about the breadcrumbs and nav line, since I haven't created Rhymes pages myself.
 * Most of my contributions lately have been adding rhymes, and I would appreciate the help if you are still willing to contribute to that part of the project. - excarnateSojourner (talk | contrib) 15:25, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay, I see. Add rhymes, but don't make Rhyme pages. Then use the Category at the bottom of the page to find other rhymes. Thanks for clearing that up. Tocharianne (talk) 18:41, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
