 | This script has been superseded by XFDcloser. Please use that script instead. This documentation is retained primarily for historical interest. |
This script, TFDcloser (source), makes it easy to close TFD discussions.
Installation edit
To install the script, add:
importScript('User:Evad37/TFDcloser.js'); // [[User:Evad37/TFDcloser]]
Usage edit
Closing options edit
TFDcloser adds the following one-click close options to TFD entries:
- [keep/other]
- Use for: Keep, or other close that will result in the template(s) being kept (e.g. Redirect, No Consensus)
- Details: Prompts for result & rationale; closes discussion using that result & rationale (and {{NAC}} if non-admin); adds {{Old TfD}} to template talkpage; removes {{Template for discussion/dated}} or {{Tfm/dated}} from template
- [qK] (QuickKeep)
- Use for: Keep, when no further rationale is required
- Details: Same as [keep/other], but instead of prompting, just uses "Keep" as the result/rationale
- [delete/other]
- Use for: Delete, or other close that will result in the template(s) being deleted (e.g. Review, Convert, Substitute)
- Details (admins): Prompts for result & rationale; closes discussion using that result & rationale; prompts for which holding cell section to use, or "delete now";
- If a holding cell section is selected: adds {{tfdl}} to that holding cell section, and replaces {{Template for discussion/dated}} or {{Tfm/dated}} with {Being deleted} (<noinclude>'d);
- If "delete now" selected: performs delete action, using a link to the TFD discussion as the reason
- Details (non-admins): Prompts for result & rationale; closes discussion using that result, rationale, and {{NAC}}; prompts for which holding cell section to use; adds {{tfdl}} to that holding cell section; replaces {{Template for discussion/dated}} or {{Tfm/dated}} with {{Being deleted}} (<noinclude>'d)
- [qD] (QuickDelete)
- Use for: Delete, when no further rationale is required
- Details: Same as [delete/other], but instead of prompting, just uses "Delete" as the result/rationale. Will still prompt for a holding cell section or (if admin) "delete now"
- [relist]
- Details: Prompts for optional relist comment; relists discussion on current day's TFD subpage; closes original discussion as "Relist" (and removes the old discussion); updates {{Template for discussion/dated}} or {{Tfm/dated}} on template
- [other close]
- Use for: Closes which require different actions for one or more of the templates listed at the discussion (e.g. Merge, Delete some but keep others)
- Details: Prompts for result & rationale; closes discussion using that result/rationale; opens each template so that further manual action can be undertaken.
Or, if the script can't identify any templates, just one option:
- [Close]
- Prompts for closing comment, and closes the discussion with that comment, but takes no further action.
Hide/Show closed sections edit
An option to hide or show already closed sections, making it easer to find uncooked sections. Appears near the Move link, in the More dropdown menu.
Notes edit
- Entering the result "soft delete" will automatically be expanded to "soft delete. WP:REFUND applies."
- If holding cell section "Ready for deletion" is selected, the template(s) will have {{db-xfd}} added instead of {{Being deleted}}
