There have been many Wikipedia:Templates for discussion (TfD) debates over the years. This page summarizes how various types of articles, subjects, and issues have often been dealt with on TfD. It is modeled on the equivalent pages for AfD and RfD. However, there are significant differences between AfD, RfD and TfD, chiefly that the other debates are often focused on whether the topic is notable, whereas there is no standard or requirement for notability of templates.
