"That's the point"
I understand the humor, but I still maintain that it can give implications of the fact that the template should not be used for the purpose of interwiki linking. Furthermore, Toomai, when saying, "That's the point," implied that it shouldn't. Can someone please explain why it should not be used for interwiki linking? Air Conditioner
