Template documentationUsage
Tagging a single page is simple:
{{Merge|OtherPage |date
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationNovember 2024}}
| It has been suggested that this page or section be {{<tvar|3>#ifeq:Template|Template:Ns:Extension|merged|merged}}{{<tvar|4>#if:OtherPage| with <tvar|5>OtherPage}}{{<tvar|6>#if:| to <tvar|7>[[{{{target}}}]]|}}. ( Discuss) |
By default, the Discuss link on the template links to the top of the destination page's talk page. To specify which section, or to name a different talk page entirely, use the |discuss= parameter:
{{Merge|OtherPage |discuss
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationTalk:OtherPage#Merge discussion |date
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationNovember 2024}}
| It has been suggested that this page or section be {{<tvar|3>#ifeq:Template|Template:Ns:Extension|merged|merged}}{{<tvar|4>#if:OtherPage| with <tvar|5>OtherPage}}{{<tvar|6>#if:| to <tvar|7>[[{{{target}}}]]|}}. ( Discuss) |
To name other pages to be merged, simply separate them with a vertical pipe. You can add up to 20 articles to be merged:
{{Merge|OtherPage1 |OtherPage2 |OtherPage3 |discuss
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationTalk:OtherPage#Merge discussion |date
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationNovember 2024}}
| It has been suggested that this page or section be {{<tvar|3>#ifeq:Template|Template:Ns:Extension|merged|merged}}{{<tvar|4>#if:OtherPage1| with <tvar|5>OtherPage1, OtherPage2 and OtherPage3}}{{<tvar|6>#if:| to <tvar|7>[[{{{target}}}]]|}}. ( Discuss) |
To name multiple pages to merge into a single page, use the |target= parameter. For example, to merge the tagged page, as well as OtherPage1, OtherPage2, and OtherPage3 into OtherPage4, use:
{{Merge|OtherPage1 |OtherPage2 |OtherPage3 |target
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationOtherPage4 |discuss
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationTalk:OtherPage#Merge discussion |date
Template loop detected: Template:DocumentationNovember 2024}}
| It has been suggested that this page or section be {{<tvar|3>#ifeq:Template|Template:Ns:Extension|merged|merged}}{{<tvar|4>#if:OtherPage1| with <tvar|5>OtherPage1, OtherPage2 and OtherPage3}}{{<tvar|6>#if:OtherPage4| to <tvar|7>OtherPage4|}}. ( Discuss) |
These templates will add tagged articles to Category:Articles to be merged, while non-articles (files, templates, etc.) will be added to Category:Items to be merged.
Notes
- After adding the merge template, please create a section on the talkpage explaining your rationale for the merge proposal.
- Do not link to the pages with square brackets.
- The date may not be shown in the box. Do not be concerned about this. It is used when grouping tagged pages together into categories by date.
