Template:R:PWN

FYI, I have created Template:R:PWN and placed it to a couple of pages. Should you have an issue with the template, please let me know.

I see you added quotation marks. I won't remove them, but note they are not used in some of the most popular reference templates. I think it was Robert Ullman who opined that the quotations marks are excessive typography given the color and icon we use in the external hyperlink.

No real objection. In fact I sometimes consult PWN myself, just to make sure I did not miss any definition. Though we do not tend to treat dictionaries as very authoritative anyway. Also, I would have probably named the template {{R:pl:PWN}} myself.

I place these kinds of sources to "External links", to suggest we do not use them as an authority. As for "pl:" prefix in the template name, I think it does not add any value, and is longer to type.

Okay. I am fine with that. Not sure why you even posted this.

(I imagine there might be other dictionaries abbreviated "PWN"; adding language code should disambiguate that sufficiently. And I never understood lazy typists. But meh.)
