Purpose

{{oldtfd}}

Records that the labelled template has survived a nomination at WP:TFD.

Usage

{{subst:oldtfd|year month day}}

year month day should be the full date which the TFD result is logged under [[Wikipedia:Templates_for_deletion/Log/]]. The template itself will add an anchor going directly to the entry. Note that this format will only work for templates nominated after January 2006!

This template should be substituted.

Example

{{oldtfd|2006 March 2}} (note that anchor does not work in example)

History

• Created by Phil | Talk 16:28, May 10, 2005 (UTC)
• Modified by -- nae'blis _(talk) 20:09, 8 March 2006 (UTC) to point correctly to the new daily log format.
  • Sadly, breaking hundreds of pages in the process, which I have done my best to repair. --William Allen Simpson

Discussion

Now I feel kind of dumb for fixing this - has it been deprecated in favor of {{tfd-kept}}? -- nae'blis _(talk) 17:05, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Dunno, should be discussed at Wikipedia talk:Templates for deletion#Notes on talk pages.

That discussion has stalled. I'm going to be bold and rd these to {{oldtfd}}. It's better written, better documented, and consumes less screen real estate. Use this. John Reid 11:44, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, this is oldtfd. But redirecting the others didn't work, as the parameters don't match, something you'd have noticed by actually checking your work....

BTW, the discussion didn't "stall" it was replaced by a later discussion!
