Template:Improper AfC redirect or category request/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Improper AfC redirect or category request. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
A notification template for user talk pages explaining why you removed their edit to Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Redirects or Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Categories.
Suitable for non-compliant edits that are good-faith in nature and do not warrant a warning but rather a friendly instruction.
This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Improper AfC redirect or category request}} ). |
Usage
editYou may either use:
{{subst:AfC redirect error}} ~~~~
by itself for the default message,
or you may add a page name and custom message as an optional parameter that will replace "Thank you.":
{{subst:AfC redirect error|PAGE_NAME|OPTIONAL_MESSAGE}} ~~~~
Twinkle
editYou can add this template to the custom warning list in your Twinkle preferences:
- Go to ยง Warn user
- Find "Custom warning templates to display:" and click the Edit items button
- Click the Add button
- In the left field "Template name (no curly brackets)" add
AfC redirect error
- In the right field "Text to show in warning list (also used as edit summary)" you could add e.g.
Error at WP:AFCRC
