template:en-infl-reg-other-e is not right, it generates "decreing" not "decreeing". Kappa 16:18, 12 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Solved (I used that other kind of template). Widsith 16:23, 12 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
The problem is not with {{en-infl-reg-other-e}}, but with its lack of documentation. The template is supposed to be used with verbs that end in -Xe, where X is explicitely not e, i, o, or y, e.g. with "date". Those words drop the final e before adding -ing. The whole suite of English inflection templates is confusing. Rod (A. Smith) 16:30, 12 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

The usage notes look suspect to me. Apart from the word which I think is suboptimal, is this true of all English speaking place or just one or two in particular? Added by CORNELIUSSEON (talkcontribs) in 2007 so it's not recent or by a reliable editor. Both of these make me think it's either out-of-date, inaccurate or just plain bogus.
