Template:adj

In addition to the fact that the template is not used (see Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:adj) much in mainspace, I think just writing out the word is better than being lazy and having to use a single-word template. TeleComNasSprVen 23:49, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

This is a standard ISO code template, and it is required by virtually all templates to be usable for entries of the language. --Yair rand (talk) 00:35, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Very very strong keep. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:38, 26 September 2010 (UTC). To explain, if I want to add a translation in this language, and this template is deleted, I cannot do so. Shall we delete {{en}} while we're at it? Mglovesfun (talk) 12:41, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

keep because it is used now. -- Prince Kassad 13:47, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Speedy Keep. Read policy: WT:LANGCODES. Does TeleComNasSprVen wish to delete the other 7k language codes templates? --Bequw → τ 17:57, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Keep It is a vital part of en.wikt's infrastructure. Having the language code templates is needed to make some templates work properly for the language in question. The ones not yet used serve to facilitate the eventual incorporation of words from the language into Wiktionary. They serve as a kind of welcome mat for entries in languages not yet in Wiktionary. See water#Translations (if you have patience and a good internet connection). DCDuring TALK 18:53, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Keep per DCDuring, Bequw, Kassad, Martin and Yair... and WT:LANGCODES. All words in Wiktionary are to be listed and defined eventually, and the "Adiokrou" language is no exception. --Daniel. 01:12, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

Kept, newbie mistake. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:51, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
