Usage
The page on which this template is placed is automatically categorised into Category:Protected deleted pages. See also Wikipedia:Protected deleted pages and User:DumbBOT/TimeSortedPD.
- Add this to a page using {{deletedpage}}.
- To categorise by month, type {{deletedpage|Month Year}}. For example, {{deletedpage|January 2007}}.
- For stub templates and categories, type {{deletedpage|stub=yes}}. This makes the template link to SfD instead of CfD/TfD.
- Use the votepage parameter to link to the specific AfD/MfD page. For example, type {{deletedpage|votepage=The Game (game) (6th nomination)}} on The Game (game) to link to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Game (game) (6th nomination), instead of the default link to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Game (game).
- Protect the page and use a descriptive edit summary.
Self Reference
This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopaedic content.
