Template talk:Lang-de

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Why is this template deprecated?

The suggested replacement is so long that I don't think anyone is going to use it and people will use just "German: soundso" instead, requiring the link to be disambiguated and without the nifty CSS classes that {{lang}} adds. Is there at least a redirect to {{LangWithName}} or whatever its name is that can be used instead? Kusma (討論) 20:53, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. In addition to {{LangWithName}} being too long, it doesn't currently appear to italicise the entered text. —  AjaxSmack  02:16, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
