Template:Not done/doc

 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.
