| | + | ::: {{temp|langscript}} does only a very small part of what is needed: it doesn't support face= (which is necessary) or sc= (which is desirable IMHO, for the reason I gave above), and only partially supports lang= (whereas full support would be desirable); and it breaks horribly when lang= is not specified (e.g., in all instances of {{temp|term}}). If we make my proposed change to {{temp|Xyzy}}, then I think we'll be able to redirect {{temp|langscript}} to {{temp|Xyzy}} without harm; but if we were to redirect {{temp|Xyzy}} to {{temp|langscript}} right now, without greatly enhancing the latter, then we would cause noticeable breakage in a ''lot'' of pages. —[[User: Ruakh |Ruakh]]<sub ><small ><i >[[User talk: Ruakh |TALK]]</i ></small ></sub > 23:39, 24 July 2011 (UTC) |
