This template will categorise articles into [[:Category:Articles for deletion]]. This [[Wikipedia:Template messages|template]] is a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid|self-reference]] and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content. |

This template should always be [[Wikipedia:Substitution|substituted]] onto pages it appears on, because it requires that the <nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki> [[Help:Variable|variable]] be substituted. (This is so that the link to the AFD discussion does not break when the page is renamed during AFD discussions.) If this template is not substituted, a warning message will be shown instead. |

This template results in 3 lines of wikitext that make use of {{tl|AfDM}}. |

Usage
{{Article for deletion|discussion=Talk:Page title#Discussion|reason=Explain the concern}}
Use the appropriate namespace talk page for a template, file, category or module. The optional discussion parameter links a specific local discussion and section. The notice asks for review; it does not decide the result or create an automatic deadline.
