Plurals and noun plural forms

[edit]
labels["plurals"] = {
	description = "{{{langname}}} nouns that are inflected to be quantified as more than one (more than two in some languages with dual number).",
	fundamental = "Non-lemma forms subcategories by language",
	parents = {"noun forms"},
}
labels["noun plural forms"] = {
	description = "{{{langname}}} nouns that are inflected to be quantified as more than one (more than two in some languages with dual number).",
	fundamental = "Non-lemma forms subcategories by language",
	parents = {{name = "noun forms", sort = "plural"}},
}

Both of these have the same description and are used basically for the same purpose. I think we should either change plurals to be more general ({{{langname}}} terms that are...) and move it out of noun forms, or just remove it. I originally came here looking for the duals equivalent of plurals and discovered that noun dual forms and others already existed, so, I think that we shouldn't switch to a scheme similar to plurals because noun * forms already have it all.

I agree. —CodeCat 15:34, 25 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
So, should I delete labels["plurals"]... or what? Enosh (talk) 16:58, 2 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
That would just break all the existing "plurals" categories. Those need to be empty first. But have you discussed this with other editors? —CodeCat 18:00, 2 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
I haven't, should this be discussed in WT:BP? Enosh (talk) 18:16, 2 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
I'd say so, yes. —CodeCat 18:22, 2 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
