All transwiki templates

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:

• {{subst:cfd}}

If a group of similar categories or a category and its subcategories, use an umbrella nomination:

• {{subst:cfd|SectionName}}

SectionName is the joint discussion section. It may be a category name, or any other unique name that reflects the nominations.

Note that where the SectionName includes the category prefix, it must specified:

• {{subst:cfd|Category:Bishops}} – with category prefix
• {{subst:cfd|Bishops and archbishops categories}} – without category

• 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:

• {{subst:cfd|type=containerization}}
• {{subst:cfd|type=navboxification}}
• {{subst:cfd|type=rescoping}}
• {{subst:cfd|type=cleanup discussion}}
• {{subst:cfd|type=expansion}}
• {{subst:cfd|type=subcategorization}}

Can be used with the SectionName:

• {{subst: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
