Template:Article for deletion/doc

This template will categorise articles into Category:Articles for deletion. This template is a self-reference and so is part of the project rather than the encyclopedic content.

This template should always be substituted onto pages it appears on, because it requires that the 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 AfDM.
