Template talk:Oldmfd

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

• Can anyone explain why this should not be substituted? It seems that the discussion page parameter is vulnerable if the page is later moved, since the default setting uses the page to create the link. So if Wikpedia:Deletion process is MfD'd and later moved to a new project space named, say, Wikipedia:Deletion procedure, the MfD template would link to the non-existent discussion at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Deletion procedure. Subst would solve this problem (as does adding the discussion page parameter, but not everyone does that).--Doug.^{(talk • contribs)} 17:30, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
