Talk:Abbreviations
Move article to Terminology & nomenclature
I would like to propose that the article be moved to Terminology and Nomenclature (alt spelling: Terminology & Nomenclature), as that is what the article is moving to become either way. Abbreviations will still be part of this change as it belongs to termonology and nomenclature.--blockhaj (talk) 18:49, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
HK & VK designations
Just wondering what the reason for undoing my edits fixing the meaning of VK and adding HK was? kleinerPanzer (talk) 05:03, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Conflicting sources. Half says Vollketten, half says Versuchskonstruktion. Until we can find a reliable source (ideally a German source from WW2), there won't be any changes. --Colok76286 (talk) 07:34, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- VK is an abbreviation for a lot of things, including vollketten (full tracks) and versuchskonstruktion (trial construction).--blockhaj (talk) 19:30, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- Then wouldn't it be appropriate to list both, and a note on how the definitions are conflicting? kleinerPanzer (talk) 04:25, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

Inconsistencies/QA
This page is still very much WIP. Unlike other pages, however, no in-game inconsistencies need to be adopted here. I therefore suggest that someone (a moderator?) creates rules or a template according to which entries should be made. For example, what exactly should be entered under “literally”? I had a look at the German section, “Tank thrower” is not the same use of “literally” as “Dive attack aeroplane”. Leaving aside the problem of multiple meanings. Humans make mistakes, who would know better than me. But I would never think of editing a Chinese entry entirely on my own. Perhaps we editors should agree not to write entries in a language we're unable to speak at CEFR level B2 at least?
