- name_of_template: The name of the template is usually the first parameter, to create a link to the appropriate TFD page section. If there are special characters the proper substitutions have to be made to match the section heading anchor. Don't include Template: in the name of the template.
- It's often a good idea to add {{tfd}} in a <noinclude> section of the relevant template, otherwise the TFD note will show up on all pages using the nominated template. This could be considered as disruptive, but "hiding" the TFD can also be controversial.
