Template documentation[edit] Description
The {{afd-mergeto}} and {{afd-mergefrom}} templates are intended for use by a sysop who closes an AfD debate with a consensus to merge the nominee into another article (or by a different user acting on such a decision).
[edit] Instructions
Upon removing the {{afd}} notice (if still present), add the {{afd-mergeto}} tag to the top of the nominated article (not its talk page). Use the following format:
{{afd-mergeto|destination article|debate name|debate closure date}}
For example, assume that a debate was closed on 5 July 2009. If the consensus is to merge the nominated article into an article called Topic X, and the debate is located at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Topic Y (second nomination), the tag should be configured as follows:
{{afd-mergeto|Topic X|Topic Y (second nomination)|5 July 2009}}
This will generate the following notice:
|
|
This article was nominated for deletion. The debate was closed on 5 July 2009 with a consensus to merge the content into the article Topic X. If you find that such action has not been taken promptly, please consider assisting in the merger instead of re-nominating the article for deletion. To discuss the merger, please use the destination article's talk page. |
Also add the {{afd-mergefrom}} tag to the top of the destination article's talk page (not the article itself). Use the following format:
{{afd-mergefrom|nominated article|debate name|debate closure date}}
For example, assume that a debate was closed on 5 July 2009. If the consensus is to merge an article called Topic Y into the article associated with the talk page, and the debate is located at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Topic Y (second nomination), the tag should be configured as follows:
{{afd-mergefrom|Topic Y|Topic Y (second nomination)|5 July 2009}}
This will generate the following notice:
 |
The article Topic Y was nominated for deletion. The debate was closed on 5 July 2009 with a consensus to merge the content into Topic X. If you find that such action has not been taken promptly, please consider assisting in the merger instead of re-nominating the article for deletion.
