Template:Mfd-merge from/doc
![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Mfd-merge from. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Description
The {{mfd-mergeto}} and {{mfd-mergefrom}} templates are intended for use by a sysop who closes an MfD debate with a consensus to merge the nominee into another page (or by a different user acting on such a decision).
Instructions
Upon removing the {{mfd}} notice (if still present), add the {{mfd-mergeto}} tag to the top of the nominated page (not its talk page). Use the following format:
{{mfd-mergeto|destination page|debate name|debate closure date|talk page of destination page}}
For example, assume that a debate was closed on 7 May 2024. If the consensus is to merge the nominated page into a page called Sarkarverse:Topic X, and the debate is located at Sarkarverse:Miscellany for deletion/Sarkarverse:Topic Y (second nomination), the tag should be configured as follows:
{{mfd-mergeto|Sarkarverse:Topic X|Sarkarverse:Topic Y (second nomination)|7 May 2024|Wikipedia talk:Topic X}}
This will generate the following notice:
![]() | This page was nominated for deletion. [[Sarkarverse:Miscellany for deletion/{{{2}}}|The debate]] was closed on {{{3}}} with a consensus to merge the content into the page [[{{{1}}}]]. If you find that such action has not been taken promptly, please consider assisting in the merger instead of re-nominating the page for deletion. To discuss the merger, please use [[Talk:{{{1}}}|the destination page's talk page]]. |
Also add the {{mfd-mergefrom}} tag to the top of the destination page's talk page (not the page itself). Use the following format:
{{mfd-mergefrom|nominated page|debate name|debate closure date}}
For example, assume that a debate was closed on 7 May 2024. If the consensus is to merge a page called Topic Y into the page associated with the talk page, and the debate is located at Sarkarverse:Miscellany for deletion/Topic Y (second nomination), the tag should be configured as follows:
{{mfd-mergefrom|Topic Y|Topic Y (second nomination)|7 May 2024}}
This will generate the following notice:
![]() | The page [[{{{1}}}]] was nominated for deletion. [[Sarkarverse:Miscellany for deletion/{{{2}}}|The debate]] was closed on {{{3}}} with a consensus to merge the content into Template:Mfd-merge from/doc. If you find that such action has not been taken promptly, please consider assisting in the merger instead of re-nominating the page for deletion. To discuss the merger, please use this talk page. |
