[SOLVED] What is the purpose of a [to-be-moved] tag in a question?

E.g. in the [OFF-TOPIC] Challenge Storm (Until the limit is reached) thread in the Q&A section? Unlike mfd it has no effect.

11 months. Has it been that long? O.o Anyway, I'm replacing all of them with sfd, so it doesn't look as ugly. Think of "sfd" (or "[to-be-moved]") as a different way of tagging the threads with "mfd" ... without the thread being auto-removed. The current Q&A rules have only been enforced for threads created after the date in which the mods' protocols were updated since enforcing new rules on threads that were created before the rules were updated would be unfair to the owners of those threads. The mods are waiting for a tool that will grant us the ability to move threads from the Q&A section into the feed-post section. Once that tool is provided to us, we'll search "sfd" and use it.

Set for deletion, scheduled for deletion, saved for deletion - any would work, as long as it's not mfd so that it isn't auto-removed.

Saksham Jain I tagged mine mfd by mistake and just removed it. The to-be-moved tag is still there in the challenge storm (until limit reached) thread.

I don't see it now... You tagged your own question as MFD?

Sonic I don't remember seeing that tag anywhere. Could you link the thread you're referencing? I've very good explanation having seen some events, which may have gone unseen by many users😋

When some new feature comes which was demanded by many users and they'd made many posts to gather support, mods go on Q&A hunt and mfd all the questions. This tag can help them to search which thread to be deleted, but I'm not sure it's the case, they don't seem to use new tag for that🤔
