Merge {{IUPAC spelling US}}
's output functionality as a |IUPAC=yes
parameter in {{American English}}
; the separate template is redundant. Merge the same feature to {{Canadian English}}
and (for pages using the silent categorizing templates instead of the annoying banners) its categorizing functionality to {{Use American English}}
and {{Use Canadian English}}
. For {{IUPAC spelling}}
, similarly merge its functionality to the same kind of parameter in {{British English}}
, {{Use British English}}
and all the other non-North American ENGVAR templates. The IUPAC stuff does not magically just apply to US and UK English. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 05:41, 24 January 2018 (UTC)

Please do not use <strike>
; this old element has been deprecated for over a decade, and it's use here triggers the HTML "lint" cleanup filters many of us WP:GNOMEs are using to clean up Wikipedia in preparation for migrating fully to HTML5. The correct elements to use are <s>
for typographic strike-though ( what you probably want most of the time, e.g. for indicating a redacted comment), while <del>
is semantic markup that indicates deletion/rejection and is used with <ins>
(inserted/replacement material) in marking up revision of draft material such as a proposal. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 00:32, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
