What is the opposite of aging? as in; an aging population versus a .... population?

Some e-thugs are pseudo-aging webpages (changing the dates to appear older, usually on their personal website).

Merge

[edit]

@-sche Can you take a look at merging this with ageing? Ultimateria (talk) 18:37, 15 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Add text back.

[edit]

@surjection: I think we should add the text back:

"More common" means that the definition is used more often (e.g. "the device/car is aging"). ---Chanc20190325 (talk) 10:41, 29 May 2019 (UTC).Reply

Indeed, and the order of the definitions was by no means "more common definitions further on top". "Loss of vibrancy" is redundant to the gerontology definition, while the electronics/mechanics definition does not need to be as verbose if it's synonymous to "wear", "wear and tear". Especially "device/engine/motor/component/machine/battery" just looks bad. — surjection?11:09, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
