doubles

Well done for your first edit!!

I would take out the adjective part; see User talk:Coppertwig#Twin.

For the verb part: I wouldn't put the definition on this page, but direct the person to the page double by using {{third-person singular of|double}} (see talks.)

I'm not sure, but I think "related words" would only be words like "doubly" that come from the same root. "single" could go under "See also" or possibly "Antonyms".

For the noun: I'm not convinced that there's a usage that doesn't also have a singular form. Maybe there is. If there is, you could put {{noun|none|doubles}}. If not, I would direct the user to the page double, similarly as for the verb. It can still have the heading and template, but instead of definitions and examples I would just put {{plural of|double}}. The definitions and examples can be moved to that page if they're not already there.

I see that on the page "talks" there is an example usage given. I guess it may make sense to do it that way if the plural is used a lot less often than the singular.

I hope this doesn't sound too critical, and I hope you'll continue contributing!! Welcome to Simple English Wiktionary! ☺Coppertwig(talk) 13:12, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
