Template:New Taiwan dollar[edit]
- Swept in from the pub
Hi there.
Can someone explain to me why we are using this template, which shows the converted dollar value in brackets? Why do we prefer USD over GBP or EUR? I reckon the English WV is actually used more by non-US people than US (this is just a matter of numbers not preference), and also it is the major source for British folks. This additional value is just taking up space, is even confusing, and pretending that USD has any additional relevance in this country, which it does not.
So, unless we are also including GPB and EUR, I would like to remove it. Any objections?

- Should create a new one based on format of others. See Template:Exchangerate/list. For example using {{ZAR|100}} will show R100 which gives currency rates on mouse over. --Traveler100 (talk) 17:43, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
- This was one of many currency-related templates created by a new user in violation of our policy on introducing new templates (and as I understand it, that user went on to try to unilaterally alter our template policy after being called out). They should be deleted en masse. -- AndreCarrotflower (talk) 20:29, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
- I agree with Andre. When I was updating exchange rates for our country, territory and dependency articles that include them, I found these special currency templates to be a pain to update. I would be happy to see them deleted.
- The only ones that should be kept are those for currencies used in many countries (euro, US $, UK £, CFA franc, Eastern Caribbean $, Aus $ and NZ$). These templates (which I created with help from the much-missed Ryan) make it easier to update exchange rates and ensure that we use the same rates scriss articles.

- Given that the African Francs are tied to the Euro, is it possible to have them automatically update when the € updates? Hobbitschuster (talk) 01:09, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
- Done. Reverted those weird NTD template edits. Ceever (talk) 01:45, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
