Parameters
Parameter name	Usage
`type`
`name`	The name of the page at XFD, including any namespace (e.g. Category: or Template:). If `discussion name` is unused, this is used for linking to the discussion.
`base page`	(Optional) The name of the discussion area the deletion discussion is located at (e.g. Votes for deletion, Redirects for discussion, etc.). If omitted, it defaults to "Articles for deletion".
`log date`	(Optional) If `log` is set to "yes", this is the date of the log. Most of the time, it will be formatted `YYYY Month DD`, for example `2024 07 11`, but this isn't a hard rule; be sure to check the exact structure of the date when using this parameter. If `log` doesn't equal "yes" or is omitted, this parameter is ignored.
`discussion name`	(Optional) The name of the discussion. If omitted, this defaults to `name`, and if `ns` is also used, it defaults to `ns:name`.
`start date`	(Optional) The date the discussion was started, ISO-formatted. If `log` is set to "yes", this will probably be the same as `log date`, but not necessarily (the discussion may have been relisted).
`closed date`	(Optional) If `start date` is used, the date the discussion was closed, ISO-formatted. If `start date` is omitted, this parameter is ignored, and if this parameter is omitted, `start date` displays by itself in parenthesis without an en dash.
`result`	(Optional) The result of the discussion, e.g. "redirect", "keep", "delete", "no consensus", etc.
