Template talk:Transwikied to Wiktionary

I'd like to add a conditional parameter to this, date=, to indicate on the first line when I transwikied an item. I did not realize this template existed on Wikipedia when I started automating the Wiktionary transwikis. (I spend most of my time there; I'm mostly ignorant of these Wikipedia subtleties.)

I will change: to this:
 * This page has been transwikied to Wiktionary.
 * This page has been transwikied to Wiktionary.

If no one objects, I'll be bold in the next day or two, when the User:CopyToWiktionaryBot has its kinks worked out and is ready to add these talk page doobers.

The only problem I can foresee with this method, would be if some psycho comes along and subst:'s these templates (which apparently should never be subst:'ed.) But even then, I'd only generate duplicates if I re-ran the older items (which I only plan on doing once.)  If there is some Wikipedia procedure I'm forgetting, please give me a heads-up on my talk page on Wiktionary. Thanks.

Reducing verbosity
I've gotten some complaints about this template as well, so I shall try to reduce the verbosity a bit. Please be bold in adding back parts that you think are really needed, but please don't revert it all. --Connel MacKenzie - wikt 03:15, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

small=yes
If the bot is using the wikicode - can you ensure that it is capable of handling the use of the parameter |small=yes so that talk pages that are organized in that way can have it among the small tags? --Random832 22:55, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Capitalization
This template appears to use the name of the article with original capitalization. Yet Wikipedia and Wiktionary differ in their use of capital letters. Thus the template on Talk:Layman links to (non-existent) Layman, when it should probably link to layman instead. (The link to wikt:Transwiki:Layman, on the other hand, is perfectly appropriate.)
