फलकम्:Requested move
This template should always be substituted – use {{subst:Requested move}}. |
Template:Requested move is substituted for input validation and archiving reasons (so a permanent record of the proposed page name can be placed on the talk page).
Edits to this template can adversely effect User:RMCD bot. Please check edits with the bot operator before implementation.
Usage
[सम्पादयतु]This tag will add tagged articles to Wikipedia:Requested moves.
Please note that unlike {{article for deletion}}, the discussion for a page move must take place on the talk page, not on Wikipedia:Requested moves.
Create a section at the bottom of the talk page of the page that you want to be moved. It should be formatted like this:
== Requested move ==
{{subst:Requested move|NewName|Why}}
or this:
== Requested move ==
{{subst:Requested move|NewName|reason = Why}}
Where:
- NewName = your proposed new name for the page, i.e., the name which the page should be renamed or moved to
- Why = your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate
This will create a template (see Template:Requested move/dated) on the talk page, and links to the old page and new page. For example:
== Requested move ==
{{subst:Requested move|Template:Move|Move was the original name of this template, and we should revert to that.}}
will create:
Requested move
फलकम्:Requested move/dated/mirror
Template:Requested move → Template:Move – Move was the original name of this template, and we should revert to that. Username (talk) 21:44, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
If you're unsure about what the best new name is, use a question mark for the new name. Suggested move is a common and popular alternative section header:
== Suggested move ==
{{subst:Requested move|?|reason = The name should be either "move" or "rename", let's discuss which is better.}}
creates:
Suggested move
फलकम्:Requested move/dated/mirror
Template:Requested move → ? – The name should be either "move" or "rename", let's discuss which is better. Username (talk) 23:16, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
User:RMCD bot will copy the move information to WP:RM, usually within 20 minutes.
If your reason contains an equals sign (often in web links), then, to work around MediaWiki फलकम्:Bug, use parameter reason= or 2= rather than an unnamed parameter. |
Adding survey and discussion subsections
[सम्पादयतु]to append the subsections in {{Requested move/talk}}.talk=yes
Default behavior
[सम्पादयतु]- If unnamed parameter {{{1}}} is not specified, then ? – an unspecified destination to be decided on the talk page – is assumed
- If neither parameter {{{2}}} or {{{reason}}} are specified, the default text is "Please place your rationale for the proposed move here." This text should be edited to replace it with an actual rationale for the requested move.
