Template:Not done

Instructions for {{Not done}}

{{Not done}} is a template that is often used on talk pages to show that an action — usually a request of some kind — has not been taken. It therefore allows readers to easily skip to the part of the conversation that has not yet been resolved, so that they can find ways to solve only the outstanding issue.

Alternately, there are some applications of the template where it can indicate that a matter is closed in the negative. Some requests simply cannot be granted.

Syntax

You may use {{not done}} by itself for the default message, you may add a custom message as an optional parameter. Unlike in other iterations of this template at various wikis, however, you may not use it to just produce the "red x" symbol.

Template	Result
{{not done}}	Not done
{{not done|Custom message}}	Not done: Custom message

Example

When used to indicate a resolvable problem I think this article needs more pictures. --User:John 00:00, 1 January 2000 I agree, especially the part about the estate grounds. --User:Jane 00:05, 1 January 2000 Can anyone find any, I've looked on Commons but there doesn't appear to be any. --User:George 00:23, 1 January 2000 Not done: The only pictures I can find are copyrighted, can anyone else help? --User:John 00:30, 1 January 2000 Can anyone take some photos?. --User:Jane 01:00, 1 January 2000 Done: I've uploaded one I took myself. --User:John 03:00, 1 January 2000 Template:Thank you, that looks great. --User:George 12:00, 1 January 2000 Good bye!! --User:John 00:00, 2 January 2000 When used to simply deny a request, without inviting further comment. Please give me admin rights on this wiki. --User:Whoever Not done: You've been banned three times for violation of T:SPOIL, contributed only 50 edits and uploaded porn to the site. czechout<staff /> ☎ ✍  23:24: Fri 06 Sep 2013
