Speedy delete. Nothing there! Sw2nd (talk) 01:28, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Trout slap for nominator. There was something there, a badly formed attempt at a template, but it was removed. By the editor who started this TFD. That is not the way to start a TFD, CSD, or AFD....William 13:07, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Whap! I did not check that, but still delete. Sw2nd (talk) 13:48, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unused....William 13:51, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, sorry about that. I don't do these nominations that often, so it's an easy slip-up to make. Hey, my first trout-slap (not that I ever would try for one). Wbm1058 (talk) 17:55, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's not technically possible to tag text w/ more than 1 language so these should all be deleted and the languages listed individually in articles. — Lfdder (talk) 19:31, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment that's not quite true, since some of the selected languages are closely related, so use the same script and the same spelling for some terms. Whether these are used properly, or should be used is a different question. -- 76.65.129.3 (talk) 06:05, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete open to abuse for terms where spellings differ in the languages indicated, instead of being used for only terms where the spelling is the same in the indicated langauges. -- 76.65.129.3 (talk) 06:05, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Separate languages should be listed as such. Even where the spelling may be the same, the pronunciation may be different. Lumping languages together virtually implies that they are the same nation-states, along with other issues counterproductive to the concept of Wikipedia being a comprehensive, encyclopaedic resource. Each language should be identifiable to the reader. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 06:52, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As an addendum, the only way in which such templates could be justified is to create a multitude of convolutions such as Argentinian Spanish, Chilean Spanish, etc. What about variants for all of the Romance languages, Scandinavian and Germanic languages? The idea is ludicrous and serves no reasonable purpose as a 'short-cut' for anyone except a few in the know. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 22:06, 6 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per above comments. LT90001 (talk) 22:55, 8 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

delete, better to use two different language templates, or make a dual lang template that can take two inputs, but having one for every possible pairing is un-scalable. Frietjes (talk) 15:05, 11 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. While this approach may be of limited use in a handful of situations, more often than not it makes more sense to list the languages separately. Inability to mark the same passage as two different languages simultaneously is also a strong argument to delete these.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); October 11, 2013; 15:06 (UTC)

Delete - no perceived benefit can trump the downside of a combinatorial explosion, plus special logic is necessary if automatically parsing sources of a given language etc. 219.73.122.176 (talk) 03:12, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, but it would not be a good redirect because 'movement' could refer to almost anything: art movement, protest movement, etc.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 09:24, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
