 | මෙම සැකිල්ල අනිවාර්යයෙන් ම ආදේශනය කළ යුතුයි (භාවිතය උදාහරණයක් ලෙස, {{subst:Cfd notice}} ආකාර වේ). |
 | This template is used by the standard installation of Twinkle. If you are planning to make major changes to this template or nominate it for deletion, please notify Twinkle's user base and maintainers at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle as a courtesy. |
Usage
[සංස්කරණය]This template is intended to be placed on talk pages (such as the talk page of the creator or respective WikiProjects) to notify editors of a category that the category has been nominated for discussion at Categories for discussion.
Use of this template is not mandatory, and it should not be used in all cases. In particular, WikiProjects generally do not need to be notified of routine, uncomplicated, or uncontroversial discussions for one or a few categories. Please note: This template must be substituted (always using the prefix "subst:").
Syntax
[සංස්කරණය]To notify the creator or individual editors of a category that the category has been listed at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion, add {{subst:cfd notice|NAME|days=DAYS}} to their user talk page, replacing
- NAME with the category name, minus the "Category:" prefix, and
- DAYS (optional, defaults to today) is the number of days before the current date in which the page was listed on the log. For example, if the page was listed yesterday on the log, then
|days=1 would be used. If the page was listed on the log three days before today, then|days=3 would be used. Leave blank if on today's log.
A section heading will be created automatically on the user talk page.
Remember to sign and date your post by adding ~~~~ following the template code.
If the name of the section heading under which the CfD discussion appears is not the same as the full name of the category (with the Category: prefix), then provide the name of the section heading as a third parameter.
- Examples
{{subst:cfd notice|CATEGORY NAME}} ~~~~{{subst:cfd notice|CATEGORY NAME|2024 දෙසැම්බර් 12}} ~~~~{{subst:cfd notice|CATEGORY NAME|2024 දෙසැම්බර් 12|CFD SECTION NAME}} ~~~~
Stub templates
[සංස්කරණය]If the nomination is for a stub template, you can add |stub=yes to adjust the message text and links.
{{subst:cfd notice|TEMPLATE NAME|stub=yes}} ~~~~
Optional parameters
[සංස්කරණය]The template supports two optional parameters:
- wikiproject=yes
- To notify the members of a wikiproject, rather than a category's creator; this parameter replaces the text "which you created" with "which is within the scope of this wikiproject".
- action=value
- Any text specified in place of value, such as "deletion", "merging" or "renaming", replaces "discussion" with the user-specified text; this parameter can, in the cases of nominations to merge or rename, be used to identify the title of the proposed target category—e.g.
action=merging to [[:Category:Contents]]replaces "nominated for discussion" with "nominated for merging to Category:Contents".
