This template should not be substituted.

This template is used on approximately 19,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This template uses Lua: Module:Old moves (sandbox)

• {{Old move}}
• {{Oldmoves}}
• {{Past moves}}

This is a versatile talk page banner to elaborate the history of previous moves and move proposals.

Usage

{{Old move
| small = yes/no
| collapse = yes/no
| date = <date when the request was opened>
| from = <original title of the article> 
| destination = <proposed title>
| result = <result of the discussion>
| link = <permanent link to the discussion>
| title = <title of the page whose move logs should be shown>
| list = <bulleted list>
| oldlist = <bulleted list>
}}

Full example.

Parameters

• small: The option "small = yes" generates a smaller, and right-aligned version of the template.
• collapse or collapsed: Collapses all discussions and logs.
• date1, date2, date3...: Date when the request was opened.
• from1, from2, from3...: Original name of the article when the request was opened. May be omitted if the article was not moved.
• destination1, destination2, destination3...: Proposed title or the page title that ended up being moved to. Alias: to.
• result1, result2, result3...: Result of the discussion. Usually 'moved', 'not moved' or 'no consensus'.
• link1, link2, link3...: Link to the revision where the discussion was closed. It should preferably link to the section where the discussion was held. Do not add brackets.
• title1, title2, title3...: Used to list move logs.
• list: A bulleted list that allows editors to list discussions and undiscussed moves manually.
• oldlist: Same as list, but designed to hold older move debates. Collapsed by default.

Note: Parameters may be used without the number if there is only one move.

Examples

Single move

No parameters

Using this template without parameters is extremely unhelpful and not recommended.
