This is the {{Tdeprecated}} template.

{{deprecated template}} redirects here and can be used as an alternative name for this template.

This template notifies users that a given template has been replaced by a different one. This is useful when usage is different (so a redirect won't work) or you'd like to reduce the number of redirects (which makes bot parsing more difficult).

Whenever possible, it should replace the deprecated template's content entirely, so that someone using the template will see the message.

Usage

  • {{Tdeprecated|old template name|new template name}}
  • or
    {{Tdeprecated|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|new template name}}


{{Tdeprecated|old template name|new template name|date=January 2026}}

Normal usage

With a date
