Appearance
Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you recently created may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it has been moved to where you can continue to work on it. Please consider using the Article Wizard or the Articles for Creation procedure. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read "Your first article". You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you.
Template documentation
This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Uw-articletodraft}} ). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |
How to use:
{{subst:Uw-articletodraft|old article location|New draft location}}
references a specific new draft location{{subst:Uw-articletodraft|old article location|New draft location|Additional text}}
adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you"{{subst:Uw-articletodraft|old article location||Additional text}}
or{{subst:Uw-articletodraft|old article location|2=Additional text}}
also adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you", but doesn't link a page as specified by the new draft location.
- Please note that
|2=
refers to the new page location, not the additional text at the end of the template. Due to template limitations, the documentation does not say this. - This template should only be used when moving a page from mainspace to draftspace.
- If you are leaving this template for an editor that was a contributor to but not the original creator of the draft, add
|contributor=yes
. - Please remember to substitute the template using
{{subst:Uw-articletodraft}}
rather than{{Uw-articletodraft}}
. - To give greater detail to your message, you may add the new draft location and some additional text to the end of the template. If such new draft location or additional text includes a URL or anything which includes an equal sign ("="), it may break the parser's function unless you prefix the new draft location or the text with a named template parameter. Use "
1=
" if the new draft location contains an equals sign and use "2=
" if the additional text contains an equals sign (such as a URL). - Please refer to the index of message templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending.
- This template automatically populates the relevant category with the user page. If and when the user account gets blocked, or approximately eight weeks pass with no further action, that categorization is automatically removed.
- This standardized template conforms to guidelines by the user warnings project. You may discuss the visual appearance of these standardized templates (e.g. the image in the top-left corner) at the user warning talk page.
- This is the documentation for the {{Single notice}} standardized template, as used by several single-level user warnings or notice templates. It is located at Template:Single notice/inner(edit talk links history).
