This template is used to list other templates for renaming (moving) at the WP:TFD (Wikipedia:Templates for discussion) pages. This template is a Wikipedia self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.
Usage
To nominate a single template, substitute this template on the latest WP:TFD log page above the other nominations:
{{subst:Tfr2|CurrentTemplateName|NewTemplateName|text=Your rationale for nominating the template. ~~~~}}
- Note: CurrentTemplateName and NewTemplateName represent template names excluding the prefix
Template:(orModule:). - Accepts up to 25 current/new name pairs. These can be specified as
|current1=and|new1=,|current2=and|new2=, etc. Or they can be done as unnamed positional parameters, as long as you get the order right. See examples below. - To specify modules instead of templates, use the parameter
|module=Module:(note the colon). - To specify a mix of templates and modules, use this template twice in a sandbox, once for the template(s) and once for the module(s), and cobble together the relevant lines into a single entry, then post that at TfD. There is presently no way to tell the template to not apply a namespace itself and to just accept input as including the namespace on a per-item basis (this was attempted, but the underlying
{{Tfd links}}template cannot do this). - You must provide a rationale with
|text=AKA|reason=, and sign it with~~~~. - This listing template automatically sorts current and proposed new names into separate columns.
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Tfr2}}). |
