Upon removing the {{|afield}} notice (if still present), add the {{Afr-merge to}} tag to the top of the nominated article (not its talk page). Use the following format:Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag;
refs with no name must have content
<no-wiki>{{</no-wiki>Afr-merge to|destination article|debate name|debate closure date<no-wiki>}}</no-wiki>
For example, assume that a debate was closed on Template:CURRENT DAY March 2026. 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:
<no-wiki>{{</no-wiki>Afr-merge to|Topic X|Topic Y (second nomination)|Template:CURRENT DAY March 2026<no-wiki>}}</no-wiki>
This will generate the following notice: Template:Afr-merge to
Also add the {{Afr-merge from}} tag to the top of the destination article's talk page (not the article itself). Use the following format:
<no wiki>{{</no wiki>Afr-merge from|nominated article|debate name|debate closure date<no-wiki>}}</no-wiki>
For example, assume that a debate was closed on Template:CURRENT DAY March 2026. 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:
<no wiki>{{</no-wiki>Afr-merge from|Topic Y|Topic Y (second nomination)|Template:CURRENT DAY Template:CROSSCURRENT 2026<no wiki>}}</no wiki>
This will generate the following notice: Template:Add-merge from
