message: Has there been any discussion about what the maximum number of times an article is to be nominated for deletion within its history?? I believe a good answer is 5. Any opinions?? Georgia guy 17:28, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: See Wikipedia:Repeated AfD nomination limitation policy for a failed attempt at making policy. Note that it's probably a bad idea to try and limit the number or frequency of AFD nominations. —Locke Cole • t • c 17:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

message: *Hmm, the preloaded debate still isn't quite right.  The loaded title and la-admin parameters aren't quite right.  Can someone whose had some experience with this poke it a little bit?  If not, all probably take a look at it tonight.  Wickethewok 22:47, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Preloaded debate

message: I just set the default for the first parameter to "2nd". Which makes me wonder if we can combine this with  and set the default to "1st". Or, if someone feels frisky, add an #ifexist clause. ~ trialsanderrors 07:18, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Is there an easy way to determine how many times an article has been up for deletion??? Thanks - PocklingtonDan 08:13, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's been nominated and kept a number of times, you should be able to find links to the discussions on the talk page. If not, the only other way is to come through What Links Here and find all instances yourself. howcheng  {chat} 16:56, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I guess that's a "no" on the easy way then unfortunately - I was looking for something that a bot would be able to easily parse/fetch. Cheers - PocklingtonDan 17:03, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  When to use this template?? 

message: Still isn't quite working right.  When the preloaded debate link is clicked, it creates  ~~~~.  But since the subpage name includes "(second nomination)" (or third, fourth, etc.), while the actual article name does not, this results in two redlinks: one in the subsection link to the article, and one when it's substituted into the  template.
This can be corrected manually by removing the parenthetical from the la template and piping the subsection link (eg. "Foo|Foo (second nomination)").  Not sure there's a way to automate it without altering or replacing the afd2 template. Shimeru 10:00, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Missing signature in afd2 instructions 

message: Now that subst'ing  doesn't dump a load of code onto the article (which this one still does) and the effect of this template can be better achieved by typing , why don't we make this template subst  with the aforementioned parameters? It would make this one unnecessary. Resurgent insurgent 07:00, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Making this template call  proved too complicated, so I just made this template use  directly by copying over the code from .  It's only three lines, so it shouldn't be too hard to keep in sync.  ( also contains an extra kluge I added to try and help people to do renominations properly; I didn't include that here, since, pretty much by definition, anyone using this template has already figured out how to renominate an article.)  I also moved the documentation over to Template:Afdx/doc and updated it a bit.  —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 15:46, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

message: Can we put together a template to notify contributors that their article has been nominated, and have this availabla on the AfD notification?  Often people nominate articles but do not bother to notify the contributor.  —Gaff ταλκ 17:52, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
