Template:Userpage blanked
| This userpage has been blanked as a stale draft or as a user page that resembles an article. If this is your userpage, welcome back! You can retrieve the contents of this page in the page history. Alternatively, if you would like it deleted, simply replace the content of this page with {{db-u1}}. |
Usage
- Place the template using {{Userpage blanked}}
- To add a reason, fill in the "reason" section: {{Userpage blanked|reason=}}
This template may be used to hide (rather than delete) userpages that are stale drafts. It should only be used on userpages that have not been edited for twelve months or more. This is preferable to deleting the page, because if the inactive user returns to editing, they can easily retrieve the content from the page's edit history.
The template takes one parameter, "reason", which can be used to specify the reason that the userpage was blanked. The default reason is "to prevent its contents being indexed by search engines."
If you wish, you can notify the page creator by using {{subst:uw-staleuserpageblanked|Page blanked}} ~~~~.
Instructions
Formerly, substituting this template added the __NOINDEX__ magic word to the page being blanked, to stop search engines from indexing the blanked page. Now, however, all pages in the user namespace are NOINDEXed by default.
