This template should not be substituted.
If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, change scope, or nominate it for deletion or deprecation, please notify the Article Alerts project at Misplaced Pages talk:Article alerts as a courtesy, as this page is used by the AAlertBot bot to detect and report pages. Thank you!

This template is used to nominate an article for deletion at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion.

Do not use this template directly. Instead, use this code:

{{subst:afd}}

The {{afd}} template will automatically transclude this template once it has been substituted.

Better yet, use Twinkle to nominate articles for deletion, since the nomination process has several other steps as well (creating the deletion discussion page, adding it to the daily log pages, adding it to the deletion sorting pages maintained by Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Deletion sorting.
