Template talk:Pluralize from text

Changes to the template are needed
@Hike395, the current argument syntax isn't optimal. I found myself having to write  which I find very unclear code. How to change this? There are a few options.

I personally don't feel that there was ever a need for args[1] and args[2] to be the singular and plural versions of the parameter, as only one of those could ever be used and no one promises you that the content of those arguments are actually singular or plural - that's the reason this template exists.

Another option would be to add named parameters. So in the above case where I need only the plural output it could just write.

The above two changes greatly simplify the template and make it easier to use. Gonnym (talk) 16:02, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
