@Cookai1205: Not done "int:" is a specific call to bring up a label in the user's language. Not one we would look to overwrite as you have done without further explanation. What problem do you think that you are solving? Where are you seeing issues that needed resolving?  — billinghurst sDrewth 11:36, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

@Billinghurst: Sorry for my unclear request.

In current virsion, the param in {{int:}} doesn't do anything. params for {{int:}} are meant to replace variables like $1, not to set the language.

So, the problem is, the colon is base the content language (by default), but the {{int:word-separator}} is always base on users interface language.

Using Template:Int and its |lang= can solve the problem. Cookai🍪 _(💬talk) 11:49, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

@Pppery: I'm sorry, something went wrong. Can you please revert the change for now? Thanks. Cookai🍪 _(💬talk) 18:02, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Reverted. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 18:06, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

​Hi, I've come up with another solution. Since each <!-- comment --> already states whether there's a word separator or not, it would be convenient to just put it in the switch. What do you think? Cookai🍪 _(💬talk) 18:27, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

I don't understand this well enough to have an informed opinion anymore (and am not comfortable using my own admin tools to deploy that change after the previous fiacso). Any other admin is welcome to do as they wish. * Pppery * _{it has begun} 18:28, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
