Template:Deprecated

This template is used to notify the user that a template or module only kept for historical usage is no longer preferred to use, and may provide an alternative.

The {{{nolink}}} parameter should be used with the {{{new}}} parameter to not automatically make a link.

{{Deprecated|new|historical=historical|note=notes|nocat=Category suppressor}}

• The |1= parameter is the name of the replacement template or other page.
• The |historical= parameter adds an extra note at the title explaining that it is only kept due to historical usages.
• The |note= parameter can be used to add a reason why the template is kept or notes on how to replace the template.
• The |nocat= parameter prevents the page from being added into the Deprecated templates or Deprecated modules categories.
