Category:Deprecated parameters

This is a container category. Due to its scope, it should contain only subcategories.

Administrators: Please do not delete this category even if it is empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the HandWiki project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (appearance → show hidden categories) is set. These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

This category is populated by templates with deprecated parameters.

"Deprecated" means that the parameters still work in the template, but a consensus decision has been reached to discontinue use of the parameters. Typically, when the page count in one of these categories reaches zero, deprecated parameters are removed from the template and its documentation, then the tracking category is deleted.
