Template:REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a documentation subpage for Template:REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

[edit] Documentation

This template is used to categorize deletion debates. By using a parameter, an appropriate category is inserted. These categories help sort active deletion debates by type. When the debate is closed, this template should be removed (as the name hopefully indicates).

{{REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD|X}} is the syntax to use. Substitute "X" for one of the following letters. Do not include the cat= part, as that is for use within {{Afd2}}.

cat=M Media and music
cat=O Organisation, corporation, or product
cat=B Biographical
cat=S Society topics
cat=W Web or internet
cat=G Games or sports
cat=T Science and technology
cat=F Fiction and the arts
cat=P Places and transportation
cat=I Indiscernible or unclassifiable topic
cat=? Nominator unsure of category
cat=U Debate not yet sorted

Anything other than the above choices (not including "U" or "?") will produce a notice indicating that the debate has not been categorized, and place it in Category:AfD debates (Not yet sorted).

This template is automatically inserted by {{Afd2}} (with the parameter cat). It uses a #switch statement to work (see ParserFunctions).
