→abbr=on violates MOS: first |

Line 461:
*{{tl|time interval}} if <code>|abbr=on</code> is used
{{tl|age for infant}} displays units but never like <code>|abbr=on</code>. I can't think of any other templates using [[Module:Age]] where a unit like <code>d</code> is shown. {{ping|JFG|Huntster}} You are both away at the moment but on return you might like to offer an opinion on this request, or report where abbr=on has been used.

: Johnuniq, there's noting personal{{snd}} I'm addressing ''you'' about the current situation only because you are the one who introduced <code>abbr_on</code> but in that edit's summary did not explain why, neither can I find anything reasonable on this discussion page, nor the pages of the templates this option was supposed to reproduce. So you definitely know about the situation and its history much more that I do, thus I'm asking you why this has happened without any regard for WP:MOS. Since you're also much more familiar with the tools, it would help if you can find how much and where {{tlx|time interval}} with {{para|abbr|on}} is used to assess how it will be affected by my proposed correction. (Regarding abbreviations in {{tlx|age for infant}}, it looks like an example of somebody's made-up nonsense: no explanations why standard notation can't be used for standard units, plus searching Google for {{google|infant age "dys"}} suggests that it's not even some established jargon in any field.) And yes, if Huntster and JFG can help, it would be appreciated, because I also didn't find any justification for the current behavior of "abbr" in their comments at [[Template talk:Time interval]]. — [[User:Mikhail Ryazanov|Mikhail Ryazanov]] ([[User talk:Mikhail Ryazanov|talk]]) 04:38, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
