Wiktionary:Swedish headword-line templates

In the current (2010) English Wiktionary terminology:

  • A headword-line template should produce a single line of text, and can be used right under the ===Noun=== headline. Their names should be sv-adj-..., sv-noun-..., etc.
  • The big tables for inflection patterns, that used to be brown and floating along the right hand side of the page, are now called declension templates (for adjectives and nouns) and conjugation templates (for verbs). They should now be left-aligned, light-blue, have names like sv-conj-... and sv-decl-... and appear under the ====Inflection==== headline.
