Cùl-fhiosrachadh - Background

This template is one of a set of language manipulating templates, all of which may be found in Roinn-seòrsa:Teamplaidean Cànain, or "Category:Language templates".

Uiclair needs a quick and easy way to correct grammatical and typological errors across its pages because there are so few native Gàidhlig speakers and because mistakes are so easy to make. It is easier to repair systemic typos and grammatical errors when there are fewer places to edit them. Another benefit of using templates is that they create isomorphic pages; that is, consistent formatting across definition pages makes for easier reading. Using templates to generate definition pages also makes it easy to automatically categorize the definitions by language, part of speech, or even by topic; this automatic categorization in turn makes it easy to gather statistics about the definitions, their languages, and the parts of speech that have been defined. Finally, automatically categorized pages, templates, and categories, themselves, make for easy access.
