How to start a new CfD nomination:
|
 | This group editnotice (for Template:Pagelinks and its subpages) does not have an expiry time set. To adjust this setting, please update the |expiry= parameter. |
 |
To start a new nomination: If you have already tagged the category page with the relevant template, follow the instructions on that page to copy a partly-completed template, and paste it below. Otherwise, copy the appropriate template from here, or from the full list of other alternatives at WP:CFD#HOWTO.
- For deleting, use
{{subst:cfd2|Obsolete category|text=Your reasons. ~~~~}}
- For merging, use
{{subst:cfm2|Origin category|Destination category|text=Your reasons. ~~~~}}
- For renaming, use
{{subst:cfr2|Old category|New category|text=Your reasons. ~~~~}}
- When using these templates, specify old and new categories without the
Category: prefix, and without square brackets. The categories you specify are automatically converted to links.
- Preview before saving to ensure all the fields have been properly listed.

- When linking to a category, always add a colon (
:
) to the beginning of the link, like [[:Category:Foo]]
