 | This is a failed proposal. Consensus for its implementation was not established within a reasonable period of time. If you want to revive discussion, please initiate a thread at the community portal. |
When to use
A proposal is considered unsuccessful if, within a reasonable timeframe, there is no consensus for its acceptance. It is not necessary for consensus to be totally opposed; if consensus is ambiguous or indifferent towards the matter and unlikely to change, the plan has also failed.
To include a shortcut, pass a parameter: {{Failed policy|TW:SHORT}}.
How to use
{{Failed policy|shortcut}}
The first unnamed parameter (or named as |1=) is optional. If supplied, it displays as a link to the appropriate shortcut page for the proposal. (Note that this is not automatic; MediaWiki cannot determine the shortcut from the page itself. You need to discover or create the shortcut yourself.) Please do not create shortcuts for failed proposals; intelligible shortcuts are a finite resource. In fact, shortcuts may be usurped from long-failed proposals to redirect to something active.
The |date= parameter can be used to add the date at which the page was tagged as failed, or at which a formal WP:PROPOSAL process did not accept the proposal. It accepts any valid date format.
A |result= AKA |reason= parameter can also be used to add free-form text explaining the failure This should be kept short (e.g., a concise sentence or two), since this is a banner template. The content of this parameter will be auto-formatted as a separate paragraph below the default text (and thus should not itself contain paragraph markup).
