RFD discussion: November 2022–October 2023[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


Ecclesiastical pronunciations are now enabled by default, which makes this category redundant in light of Category:Latin terms with IPA pronunciation. Nicodene (talk) 17:35, 2 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Delete. Of slightly more value would be Category:Latin terms with Ecclesiastical IPA pronunciation only (entries where the classical pronunciation has been suppressed), but even that is marginal. This, that and the other (talk) 01:41, 3 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
I think that would just cover Medieval Latin and later - I don't see much use in it, though. Theknightwho (talk) 18:53, 5 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Theknightwho: In principle it would be redundant but there are a large number of cases where people have just slapped down {{la-IPA}} on terms coined long after the Classical era and I thought it might be helpful for maintenance purposes to find words marked as Medieval Latin but not as ecclesiastical IPA-only. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 10:19, 11 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Delete per above, though I think the suggested ecclesiastical-only category might be helpful. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 18:49, 5 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
I'd say delete per nom. Acolyte of Ice (talk) 10:31, 11 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

RFD-deleted and replaced with Cat:Latin terms with Ecclesiastical IPA pronunciation only as I suggested. I won't be offended if that cat is in turn RFD'd, but let's give ourselves time to find out whether it is useful. This, that and the other (talk) 01:56, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
