テンプレート:Afd-merge to/doc
{{#invoke:Message box|mbox}}
Description
The {{Afd-merge to}} and {{Afd-merge from}} templates are intended for use by a sysop who closes an AfD debate with a consensus to merge the nominee into another article (or by a different user acting on such a decision).
Instructions
Upon removing the {{afd}} notice (if still present), add the {{Afd-merge to}} tag to the top of the nominated article (not its talk page). Use the following format:
{{Afd-merge to|destination article|debate name|debate closure date}}
For example, assume that a debate was closed on 30 4月 2025. 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:
{{Afd-merge to|Topic X|Topic Y (second nomination)|30 4月 2025}}
This will generate the following notice: {{ safesubst:#invoke:Unsubst||date=__DATE__ |$B= {{#invoke:Message box|ambox}} }}
Also add the {{Afd-merge from}} tag to the top of the destination article's talk page (not the article itself). Use the following format:
{{Afd-merge from|nominated article|debate name|debate closure date}}
For example, assume that a debate was closed on 30 4月 2025. If the consensus is to merge an article called Topic Y into the article associated with the talk page, and the debate is located at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Topic Y (second nomination), the tag should be configured as follows:
{{Afd-merge from|Topic Y|Topic Y (second nomination)|30 4月 2025}}
This will generate the following notice: {{ safesubst:#invoke:Unsubst||date=__DATE__ |$B= {{#invoke:Message box|tmbox}}{{#invoke:Category handler|main}} }}
Category suppression
This template will add the categories Category:Articles to be merged and Category:Articles to be merged after an Articles for deletion discussion. These categories can be suppressed by using |nocat=true
.
