Why not just make the tag automatically go to the template? Why force the user to add the subst? To drive home the point that it's substitutable? Just make if rfu. It's simpler. Quadzilla99 17:25, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

Why was the tag changed to use the new template:di-replaceable fair use instead of the previous template:Replaceable fair use? nadav ( talk) 20:35, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
After tagging Image:dm0.jpg with this tag, I noticed that it tagged it as an "old image" when it was actually uploaded after July 2006. Is there a way to check for or to fix this? I am not particularly proficient with template syntax. Perhaps a bot could be written to see if the image is in fact "old", and fix the tag if not, or an alternate template could be created for use with images uploaded after the cutoff?

{{ Di-replaceable fair use}} has an undocumented parameter where you can specify a reason to why a file is thought to be replaceable. Since users are advised to use this template when tagging files, this template should give the option to specify this parameter. Wikicode for adding this parameter is available in {{ rfu/sandbox}}, and Finnusertop confirmed that this code works. I can update the documentation when the parameter has been added to the template. -- Stefan2 ( talk) 13:05, 12 March 2016 (UTC)
