Template:Old AfD list/doc

If you format an Articles for Deletion debate where there have been previous deletion debates, you can add a list of those previous debates using this template.

Example display
AfDs for this article:

Usage
Add the following line immediately below the sort template (i.e. the REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD), replacing ARTICLE NAME with the name of the article to be deleted.



The template then inserts a list of all AFD debates whose subpages begin with the article name. It is possible that previous versions of the article had different names - entering "DJ Awesome", for example, would retrieve both Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DJ Awesome and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DJ Awesome (Musician). You may also find unrelated debates.


 * If the list generated by this template is overly long or complex, or if too many false positives show up, you might consider posting a Comment with or after the nomination, to clarify matters.
 * Alternatively, if you wish, you can populate the list manually. Subst: the template as normal, then replace the " " with wikilinks to each relevant debate.
