Template:Deprecated template/doc
|
This template should not be substituted. |
- Not to be confused with Template:Deprecated.
Template:Deprecated template notifies users that a template has been replaced by one or more new templates, or deprecated (advised to no longer be used) without a replacement. This template should not be placed in a page's documentation page; instead, it is placed within a template's code, either as part of it or replacing it entirely, to notify editors about that template's status. Pages that include this template are placed under Category:Pages with deprecated templates.
Usage
Use as follows:
{{Deprecated template|Old template|Template: New template|details=Further details.}}
to get:
|
Old template is deprecated. Please use Template: New template instead.
Details: Further details. |
The last two parameters are optional. This can be useful when the template was replaced by something other than a new template, like a category.
The parameter names can be omitted if they are used in the same order as specified above.
