To propose deleting a category. The template displays the proper links and the recommended {{Cfd2}} syntax for the next step.
Please follow overall instructions.
Usage
If a single category:
If a group of similar categories or a category and its subcategories, use an umbrella nomination:
- SectionName is the joint discussion section. It may be a category name, or any other unique name that reflects the nominations.
- Please include "Cfd" in the edit summary, and don't mark the edit as minor.
- Preview before saving. The display will give more precise instructions about the next step.
Optional parameter
A parameter is available to propose something more narrowly tailored than outright deletion:
|type=
– something other than "deletion"; noun/gerund, lower-case (replaces the word "deletion" in "This category is being considered for deletion.")
Examples:
{{Cfd|type=containerization}}
{{Cfd|type=navboxification}}
{{Cfd|type=rescoping}}
{{Cfd|type=cleanup discussion}}
{{Cfd|type=expansion}}
{{Cfd|type=subcategorization}}
Can be used with the SectionName:
{{Cfd|type=containerization|Bishops and archbishops categories}}
All of these presently categorize articles in Category:Categories for general discussion.
Note: There are already specialized templates for most common CfD actions:
{{Cfc}}
- convert to article (other than a list){{Cfr}}
– rename{{Cfl}}
– listify{{Cfm}}
– merge (including upmerge){{Cfs}}
- split
The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Cfd/doc. (edit | history) Editors can experiment in this template's sandbox (edit | diff) and testcases (create) pages. Please add categories to the /doc subpage. Subpages of this template. |
