Currently an exact copy of Template:Sequence and unused, but before it does get used, this is unnecessary and will end up as an inferior duplicate of a navigation template if valid, or be used contrary to WP:FILMNAV. Gonnym (talk) 07:58, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Uncertain. are we sure there's no use for this? I realize it's an exact copy of template:Sequence now, but my thought was to create this now, and make it available for future refinement, based on what editors might think might be useful, for a navbox like this that is specifically for authors, in this format. any chance this might be useful, at all? Sm8900 (talk) 15:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The main problem I have with the style of this and similar s-x templates is that they are require editing the same information in each and very article they are used and their "transclusions" can't be tracked. With navboxes you just create it once then transclude it on all pages. You also get access to tools like Template:Check completeness of transclusions which can help track transclusions. In one of the nominations above, Template:Patrick O'Brian provides the same information in a much more editor friendly format. Gonnym (talk) 20:25, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging all of the above together into a Template:Audio-xx (Template:Audio-lang exists and seems to do this a bit differently).
All of these templates are the exact same other than the language link and tag. Before we end up with 100s of these similar templates, it would be better and much easier for maintenance if these are merged into one single template that accepts a language code and produces a link. This can be done with {{ISO 639 name link|ar}}. Gonnym (talk) 07:46, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Replace with {{lang-xx|{{audio|...|...}}}} and delete. Per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Pronunciation, IPA is the primary and recommended way of documenting pronunciation, so ideally this construction should not be used at all. Creating a new template may facilitate this nonstandard practice, so just destructure them. Nardog (talk) 06:54, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Nardog Since this is your area of expertise, I'll follow you here. Your proposed replacement is very similar to Template:Audio-lang. Do they do different thigns? Gonnym (talk) 17:43, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That template doesn't prefix the audio with the language name, so that is one difference. But it might be a good idea to replace that template too given the scarce usage. Nardog (talk) 22:33, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the discussion was merge to Template:Dagger. Izno (talk) 19:52, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Propose merging Template:Dag with Template:Dagger.
I'm going slightly more "discussion" with this TFD than anything, primarily thinking that {{dag}} should either be merged into {{dagger}} or renamed to make it more obvious as to why it's being used (though expanding the name might then make it longer than just typing out the <sup>...</sup> pair...). As it stands, {{dag}} by itself is potentially confusing (e.g. "what is a dag", or why it gives a superscript output) so I feel like something needs to be done. Primefac (talk) 14:40, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I find it strange that we still use archaic print notations instead of hyperlinked notes. How are either of those better than a regular {{efn}} note? Gonnym (talk) 15:04, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: The preferred option is to redirect {{dag}} to {{dagger}}. Given its minimal use, merging simplifies matters. However, if retaining the functionality is crucial, renaming {{dag}} to "superscript-dagger" or "dagger-sup" would clarify its purpose, albeit making it longer. Anoop Bhatia (talk) 02:19, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I can tell, it's basically only used as part of {{TAAR ligands}}. Do we need a template for this at all? Caeciliusinhorto-public (talk) 08:40, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: If choose to merge and retain functionality
{{#if: {{{s|}}} | <sup>†</sup> | † }}

{{dag}} will output †
{{dag|s}} will output <sup>†</sup>
