Usage

This template is intended to be placed on a user talk page to warn the creator of or a principal contributor to an article that such article has been nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion by another editor. Wikipedia Page History Statistics may be used to identify principal contributors to an article by number of edits.

To use, append {{subst:AFDNote|Name of nominated page(s)}} to a user talk page; a section heading will be automatically created. The template should always be substituted lest attempted replies should modify the template page; editors are encouraged to modify substituted templates to suit unique circumstances. If the name of an AfD discussion differs from the name of the article nominated (in the case, for instance, of a successive or bundled nomination), you may specify a second parameter: {{subst:AFDNote|Name of nominated page|Name of AfD page}}.

Warning: Aggressive use of this template may be seen as canvassing, which is disruptive and may lead to the canvasser's being blocked.
