This documentation is transcluded from Template:Speedydelete/doc (edit | history)

This template is for requesting that an administrator speedily remove material that has no business on CZ; for example, obvious vandalism or articles that were created accidentally or as tests. The circumstances under which pages may be speedily deleted are described in the Article Deletion Policy.

  • The template is used by placing the code {{speedydelete|REASON|~~~~}} at the top of the page to be deleted.
  • The use of the ~~~~ puts your name on the template, so that the administrator can see who is making the request.
  • Do NOT blank the page that you are requesting to be deleted. The administrator must evaluate your request and this causes him/her to take extra steps. Just put the template at the top of the page.
  • When using speedydelete on a template page, you should use the code <noinclude>{{speedydelete|REASON|~~~~}}</noinclude>, so that it is not also shown on any pages which use that template.

Check on speedy deletion requests at Category:Speedy Deletion Requests, or pages which have recently been deleted at Special:Log/delete.
