Template:Merged-from

This template should only be used on talk pages.

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Intended for use on talk pages, this template identifies that another page was previously merged into the current article.

Usage

{{merged-from | article | date | talk}}

article

Name of article which was merged; must not be wikilinked.

date

Date which the article was merged (if known).

talk

If the talk page is located in a different namespace (e.g. Wikipedia talk)

Example:

• {{merged-from|foo|date=21 November 2024}} -- displays message that the current article was merged from foo

Examples

• {{merged-from|foo}} -- displays message that foo was merged into the current article

The talk page link can be removed with the parameter |talk=no. Example:

• {{merged-from|foo|talk=no}}

The talk page is in another mainspace. Example:

• {{merged-from|Wikipedia:foo|foo}}

Additionally, if the merge has been carried out as a result of an AfD, an optional |afd= parameter can be used to link to the discussion:

• {{merged-from|article|date|afd=}}
