- As stated above, it's "designed for use by an editor who does not recall which of the two categories exists". So if you're creating/editing an entry and wish to add the page to category:Idioms (or is it English idioms?) and Phrasebook (or is it English phrasebook?) and Phrases (or is it English phrases?) and Rhetorical questions (or is it English rhetorical questions?), this template will help.—msh210℠ 17:41, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
This template was sent to RFDO before, where it was kept solely due to msh210's claim that it was useful (presumably for him alone). The template doesn't even work any more, so I can't imagine anyone has tried to use it for a long time. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 21:49, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
