Dutch label

edit

Hi @Lingo Bingo Dingo, I wouldn't consider it Netherlandic. Generally, when it comes to donating blood, words like (bloed) doneren, (bloed)donor and donatie are common in Flanders. Even though the compound itself may be more common in the Netherlands, bloeddonatie would never strike me as a Netherlandic word. Everyone would understand it, and no one would raise an eyebrow if you use it. Many official websites like the (Flemish) Red Cross, University of Ghent, Cavaria, the Belgian government, etc. also use it in an unmarked way. Morgengave (talk) 17:34, 9 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Morgengave Do you think the label should be changed to "chiefly" or should it be removed? ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 15:40, 10 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Lingo Bingo Dingo Personally, I don't think it's a Netherlandic word (even though the usage frequency may differ between the Netherlands and Flanders), so I would remove it, but it may be useful for @Azertus to chip in. Morgengave (talk) 15:44, 10 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Morgengave, Lingo Bingo Dingo I agree with Morgengave; I don't think it needs the label. We also need bloedgifte. Does that have 2 senses? A synonym of bloedgift and the word for the organised bloedgift of multiple people? --Azertus (talk) 16:25, 15 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Azertus, Morgengave All right, I have deleted the label. The interlinking of bloedgift, bloedgif and bloedgifte is surely going to need some editing attention. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 17:36, 15 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
