Moldovan userbox templates


Delete userboxes. ISO 639 code for Moldovan, mo, has been deprecated. (https://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/php/code_changes.php) --Lucjim (talk) 21:38, 14 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep. So, some language codes for the Moldovan language have been deprecated. Redirect past usage to what should be used going forwards, don’t just delete the old, but valid, usage. SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:34, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. It does not matter that the ISO 639 code for Moldovan was deprecated. The code can be deprecated and the userboxes can stay as they are.—Alalch E. 10:12, 15 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Keep. If people want to identify as speakers of the Moldovan language, I don't see any policy basis for keeping them from doing so. Redirecting to the Romanian userboxes would give many current transcluders two identical userboxes. I wouldn't complain if someone wanted to move these to new titles that don't use the ISO codes, although the link above does note: "The identifiers mo and mol will not be assigned to different items, and recordings using these identifiers will not be invalid."
