Template talk:Move to Wiktionary
==Should this template have a background color?==
[[User:Mike_Storm]] recently removed the yellow background on this template, calling it "unnecessary". I disagree. The background color is there to highlight the request to move to the wiktionary. Other templates concerning removal or moving of articles from wikipedia have background colors: (See [[Template:vfd]], [[Template:delete]], [[Template:Move to Wikiquote]], [[Template:Move to Wikibooks]]). 

(contracted; show full)
I've also added a link to official policy, added a link directly to Wiktionary, and removed the link to the Wiktionary transwiki page. [[User:Uncle G|Uncle G]] 15:37, 2005 Mar 31 (UTC)

== Two templates? ==

This template seems to imply that the article it is displayed on will be deleted (as many have) after it is transwikied. I have come across some articles that have some content that belong is Wiktionary, but the articles should stay intact, because, as is the WP policy, dictionary content is okay if it's in the context of an encycopedic article. Perhaps a second template should be created that would specify the article not be deleted afterw''o''rds. I realize the current template does not specifically say it means deletion, but many editors to large articles seem to resist the tag because of the fear of deletion.--[[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]] 22:50, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
