Template talk:Language characters

Appearance
I'm not a fan of its appearance in non-Page namespaces; I think it is simultaneously too subtle yet too intrusive. May I propose that its output in non-Page namespaces be something like &#xfffd;? Suzukaze-c (talk) 04:42, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Tracking categories
@TE(æ)A,ea.: To clarify, the reason I want to add an override for the tracking categories is that ifexist is an expensive parser function, and if a page makes heavy use of language characters or its derivatives, it can easily exceed the template include size (for example, An Ainu–English–Japanese Dictionary/A). My intention is that the parameter for overriding the tracking category be used in calling templates like Greek missing, where we know that the language is given and the tracking category exists. Why call an expensive parser function when we know we don't need to? —CalendulaAsteraceae (talk • contribs) 05:10, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
