Whenever possible, it should replace the deprecated template's content entirely, so that someone using the template will see the message.
=== Usage ===
{{tlx|Deprecated template|old template name|new template name|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}
Usage without a date parameter categorises templates to [[:Category:Deprecated templates]]. Adding the date parameter categorises the template to [[:Category:Deprecated templates from {{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}]].
If a deprecated template is still [[Wikipedia:Transclusion|in use]] on other pages, add {{tag|noinclude}} tags around the {{tl|Deprecated template}} template. That way the template page will show the deprecation tag, but pages using it will not. If a template has been fully deprecated and is not [[Wikipedia:Transclusion|in use]] on other pages, the noinclude tags may be removed. That way a deprecation tag will show on any page using the deprecated template. Afterwards consider nominating the template for [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion|deletion]].
=== Examples ===
<pre>
{{Deprecated template|old|new}}
{{Deprecated template|old|new|parameter}}
{{Deprecated template|old|new|&lt;nowiki&gt;parameter|fuu&lt;/nowiki&gt;}}
{{Deprecated template|old|new|note=Further details can be inserted here, such as why the template is retained, or the particulars of the replacement process}}
</pre>
{{Deprecated template|old|new|category=}}
{{Deprecated template|old|new|parameter|category=}}
{{Deprecated template|old|new|<nowiki>parameter|fuu</nowiki>|category=}}
{{Deprecated template|old|new|note=Further details can be inserted here, such as why the template is retained, or the particulars of the replacement process|category=}}
=== Technical details ===
This template changes style depending on what kind of page it is show on. Thus it adheres to the standardised looks for the different pages. For instance if this template becomes visible in an article it looks like this:
{{Deprecated template|demospace=main|old|new}}
=== See also ===
* {{tl|Deprecated template-inline}}&nbsp;– for deprecated inline templates
* {{tl|Deprecated stub}}&nbsp;– for deprecated stub templates
* {{tl|Sdeprecated}}&nbsp;– for deprecated shortcuts
* [[:Category:Deprecated templates]]&nbsp;– the category where this template lists templates it is used on
* {{tl|xtd}} and {{tl|bxtd}}&nbsp;– for indicating deprecated usages in general and source code, respectively
=== Redirects ===
* {{tl|Deprecated template}}

The {{Deprecated template}} template notifies users that a given template has been replaced by a different one. This is useful when usage is different (so a redirect won't work) or you'd like to reduce the number of redirects (which makes bot parsing more difficult).

Whenever possible, it should replace the deprecated template's content entirely, so that someone using the template will see the message.
