Hello, I've reformatted this as a proper noun using the template {{head|fo|proper noun}}. Could you also supply the gender? {{m}}, {{f}} or {{n}} please. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:34, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mglovesfun. Thanks for your notification. The gender identification & declension code number of a Faroese noun you can find in the upper left corner of the declension box (in this case n8). I've been too busy with the correct declension that I actually didn't care enough about the noun section itself. I've put the gender letter behind the noun itself now as well.--24h-beachcomber (talk) 11:10, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Templates[edit]

Please don't forget to add templates to the page, like on snimma and árla. —CodeCat 19:51, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for using it. Using it increases the likelihood that we will make an entry for the taxonomic name. As many for the Faroes are also added in Finnish, they easily reach the first threshold for entry creation. There is no need to enter it multiple times on a page for the same taxonomic name. The ones in the image captions are the ones that are hardest to find when I remove {{taxlink}} after the taxonomic name entry has been created. Thanks again. Happy editing.

Hi DCDuring! Thanks for your notifications which are very helpful. Actually, I have to admit that I don't understand entirely how that taxlink-template works in depth. Anyway, what you said about the Finnish entries, I think, is true. So now my question is: Would it be helpful if I include that noshow=1 tag by default or would this create new problems elsewhere? As to the multiple entering of the taxonomic name, that is indeed superfluous. I think I will remove these links. --24h-beachcomber (talk) 22:35, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've deleted [[onganstaðni]], since you reduced it to "no usable content given". I couldn't tell whether it was "created in error" (because the word is actually ongastaðni), or if this is just an alternative spelling. ([[ongastaðni]] does not mention it.) —RuakhTALK 17:45, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
