Qualifiers after terms in translation section
editVoting on: Changing the use of {{qualifier}} in translation sections to always come after a term. This prevents the use of qualifiers to span multiple terms by affixing a ":" and helps keeping a common parsable format of the translation sections for external tools (e.g. Bilingual Dictionaries for Offline Use by Matthias).

Support
edit- Support: I'm all for having consistent standards, and the added clarity of avoiding multi-term spanning looks like good design. Literal translations also (rightly) come after the term; which comes first? Stelio (talk) 11:00, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, term first, then transliteration, then literal translation, then qualifier. You correctly assumed that anything spanning multiple terms is something I want to get rid of because it is very hard to parse.--So9q (talk) 20:24, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support: This seems eminently sensible to me; at least off the top of my head, I can't devise any reasonable objections to this proposal. --Hazarasp (parlement · werkis) 10:59, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- Support. Perhaps
{{t}}
and related templates could also be updated along the lines of{{synonyms}}
to allow for built-in qualifier parameters (|q1=
,|q2=
, etc.). — SGconlaw (talk) 08:45, 11 November 2019 (UTC) - Support per above.

Abstain
edit- Abstain The translation adder script prefers
{{t}}
+{{q}}
, which is what this vote wants to enforce, but Template:q#Usage demonstrates{{q}}
