Usage
[edit]These templates are for closing Tfd discussions. The top template takes a single argument: a text line consisting of the result, the reasoning behind the decision, and your signature.
Add {{Tfd top}} underneath the section header, above the discussion, and this template underneath the discussion.
{{subst:Tfd top|'''Result'''. Reasoning. ~~~~}}- Discussion
{{subst:Tfd bottom}}
Result is usually either Delete, Merge or Keep. It can be anything you think is clear and concise.
{{Tfd top}} will also automatically add your signature for you, if you'd like. It just requires a small tweak in the formatting:
{{subst:Tfd top|'''Result'''. Reasoning | y }}
Adding the "y" as the second parameter will automatically append your signature after your reasoning.
