Template talk:Lb to kg

[edit] Purpose?

Why does this template exist, since there is Template:Convert? —Bender235 (talk) 15:02, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Because it had been created before {{Convert}} existed, and because some editors find its format more convenient than that of {{Convert}}. Best,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 16:48, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Okay. So why don't we put a note on this template (and those couple of others) that they are obsolete and editors should instead use {{Convert}}. —Bender235 (talk) 20:55, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

They are far from "obsolete". Like I said, some editors prefer this set of templates to {{Convert}}; even now. However, feel free to mark those which do not seem to be in use. Best,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 00:38, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
