Usage

{{Being deleted|YYYY Month DD|NameHeader}}
  • Nameheader defaults to the name of the current template and is only necessary when multiple templates were nominated under one discussion header.
  • Do not use leading zeros.

This template should only be applied to templates that have passed through Wikipedia:Templates for discussion, where the result of the discussion was to delete the template, but for some reason it is not possible to immediately delete the template. The main reason for this happening is if the template is currently being used on a lot of pages; it can also happen when the user that closed the deletion debate is not an administrator.

The |type=sidebar option is available if the template is an infobox or sidebar.

Merging templates

For templates which are being merged, use |merge=merge target, where merge target is the full name of the template into which the template is being merged.
