<!-- PLEASE ADD CATEGORIES AND INTERWIKIS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE -->
 
  
This template will categorise articles into [[:Category:Articles for deletion]].  This [[Wikipedia:Template messages|template]] is a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid|self-reference]] and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.
 
 
This template should always be [[Wikipedia:Substitution|substituted]] onto pages it appears on, because it requires that the <nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki> [[Help:Variable|variable]] be substituted.  (This is so that the link to the AFD discussion does not break when the page is renamed during AFD discussions.)  If this template is not substituted, a warning message will be shown instead.
 
 
This template results in 3 lines of wikitext that make use of {{tl|AfDM}}.
 
 
=== Usage ===
 
For [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion]], use {{tl|proposed deletion}} or {{tl|prod}}. [[WP:PROD]] takes load off [[WP:AFD]] and should always be used instead, if reasonable.
 
 
<nowiki>{{subst:article for deletion}} or {{subst:afd}}</nowiki>
 
This template will place a notice that the page has been nominated for deletion. It should be placed at the top of the page and substituted.
 
 
<nowiki>{{subst:afd|Weather in London}}</nowiki>
 
<nowiki>{{subst:afd|Weather in London (2nd nomination)}}</nowiki>
 
The parameter will link to a specific AFD discussion sub-page.  Use this for linking multiple articles to a single AFD discussion page (bulk nominations) or for re-nominations of articles that have already been nominated for deletion before.  (For the latter purpose, the {{tl|afdx}} template can also be used. )
