Template:REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD/doc

Documentation

This template is used to categorize deletion debates. By using a parameter, an appropriate category is inserted. These categories help sort active deletion debates by type. When the debate is closed, this template should be removed (as the name hopefully indicates).

{{REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD|X}} is the syntax to use. Substitute "X" for one of the following letters:

M	Media and music
O	Organisation, corporation, or product
B	Biographical
S	Society topics
W	Web or Internet
G	Games or sports
T	Science and technology
F	Fiction and the arts
P	Places and transportation
I	Indiscernible or unclassifiable topic
U	Debate not yet sorted

Anything other than the above choices (not including "U") will produce a notice indicating that the debate has not been categorized, and place it in Category:AfD debates (Not yet sorted).

Failing to include any parameter at all runs the risk of breaking some scripts.

This template is automatically inserted by {{Afd2}} (with the parameter cat). It uses a #switch statement to work (see ParserFunctions).
