Abstract Wikipedia talk:Useful functions for article composition
Add topicSimple sentence collective sentences
[edit]I think that, for now, it shouldn't be a recommended function: it takes an arbitrary "predicate" (we haven't yet established what counts and what doesn't count as predicate) and it requires a "subject" and an "object" (which again, are language-dependent concepts, that do not work in a language-independent context).

Switch to HTML versions where available
[edit]We should switch to recommending functions with HTML output wherever available. --99of9 (talk) 02:26, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
Deprecated
[edit]I was trying to understand how to say more useful than "an apple is a fruit" in Abstract Wikipedia and "X verbs Y" looked promising. Unfortunately f:Z33185 is deprecated so I guess this section should be removed or updated. Seudo (talk) 14:35, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
Examples in languages other than English
[edit]More relevant because this page isn't marked for translation. Maybe have the UN 6 in a table like below, with a link to WF to try it in an arbitrary language.
