I can't imagine how this template would be used. The title would be confused with the "Wikipedia new" template or {{wikipedia}} and the contents appear to be duplicating {{aus-bun}}. TeleComNasSprVen 06:05, 17 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Keep if you want this old abandoned project to be continued. The idea, if I remember correctly, was controlling the Wikipedia article linked from each language category by means of (again) a big switch function, like {{wiktionary edition}} does for Wiktionary editions. Then, Category:English language would link to w:English language because it is the default value anyway, while Category:Norwegian Nynorsk language would instead link to w:Nynorsk (not to "Norwegian Nynorsk language"). --Daniel. 08:11, 17 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
I get it, but I'm not sure it's needed. w:Latin language redirects to Latin, so the Wiktionary Category:Latin language doesn't need any modification; it just follows the redirect. Same for w:Norwegian Nynorsk language. Unless there is an example where the redirect doesn't work, why keep it? --Mglovesfun (talk) 10:43, 17 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
I remember only one example: Category:Gutnish language and w:Gutnish language. --Daniel. 05:50, 21 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Going back to the original question, how would this be used? --Mglovesfun (talk) 10:27, 25 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Kept for lack of consensus and discussion. --Chicken is fun (talk) 15:53, 1 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
