[[:Module:IPAddress]] → {{no redirect|Module:Validate IP}} – Clearer module name; the current one is not meaningfully distinct from [[Module:IP]] [[User:Pppery|&#123;&#123;3x&#124;p&#125;&#125;ery]] ([[User talk:Pppery|talk]]) 21:16, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Line 40 ⟶ 44:

*'''Oppose''' The term "IP" has no immediately clear meaning and "Validate IP" might mean anything—"Address" is needed for context and preciseness. "Validate IP Address" would be silly. This is a make-work proposal with no benefit. Despite the [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2018 July 1#Module:IP|MfD]] there is no reason to dictate what this module might do in the future by giving it a one-function-only title.

*::+1. also note all the interwiki. we do not yet have central (a la common) modules, so every interwiki is a direct copy. it is tangibly better to keep the same name used by all the other wikipedias that chose to copy this module. peace - [[User:קיפודנחש|קיפודנחש (aka kipod)]] ([[User talk:קיפודנחש|talk]]) 03:22, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
