Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]
This is a versatile talk page banner to elaborate the history of previous moves and move proposals.
Usage
{{Old move
| small = yes/no
| collapse = yes/no
| date = <date when the request was opened>
| from = <original title of the article>
| destination = <proposed title>
| result = <result of the discussion>
| link = <permanent link to the discussion>
| title = <title of the page whose move logs should be shown>
| list = <bulleted list>
| oldlist = <bulleted list>
}}
Full example.
Parameters
- small: The option "small = yes" generates a smaller, and right-aligned version of the template.
- collapse or collapsed: Collapses all discussions and logs.
- date1, date2, date3...: Date when the request was opened.
- from1, from2, from3...: Original name of the article when the request was opened. May be omitted if the article was not moved.
- destination1, destination2, destination3...: Proposed title or the page title that ended up being moved to. Alias: to.
- result1, result2, result3...: Result of the discussion. Usually 'moved', 'not moved' or 'no consensus'.
- link1, link2, link3...: Link to the revision where the discussion was closed. It should preferably link to the section where the discussion was held. Do not add brackets.
- title1, title2, title3...: Used to list move logs.
- list: A bulleted list that allows editors to list discussions and undiscussed moves manually.
- oldlist: Same as list, but designed to hold older move debates. Collapsed by default.
Note: Parameters may be used without the number if there is only one move.
Examples
Single move
No parameters
Using this template without parameters is extremely unhelpful and not recommended.
{{Old move}}
Full example
{{Old move |date=1 January 1970 |from=Source |destination=Destination |result=moved |link=Special:PermanentLink/1234567 }}
Multiple moves
All parameters can be enumerated (|from2=
, |link3=
and so on) to add multiple entries. (BUG: result1
needs to be defined to work.)
{{Old move |from1 = A |destination1 = B |result1 = not moved |from2 = C |destination2 = D |result2 = moved |date2 = {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}} }}
Small version
{{Old move |small = yes |from1 = A |destination1 = B |result1 = not moved |from2 = C |destination2 = D |result2 = Move |date2 = {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}} }}
Collapsed version
{{Old move |collapsed=yes |date=1 January 1970 |from=Source |destination=Destination |result=moved |link=Special:PermanentLink/1234567 }}
