Template:Db-g14/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template is used to tag pages for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria, specifically CSD G14. There is a separate template for each criterion – see the table to the right.

This template places the page into the category: Candidates for speedy deletion as unnecessary disambiguation pages.

Usage

[edit]

The template should be placed at the top of the page to be deleted.

Parameters

[edit]

{{db-g14}}

This is the most basic form of the template.

{{db-g14|bot=ExampleBot}}

Bot accounts will specify the |bot= parameter to notify the reviewing admin that the page was tagged by an automated process.

Author notification

[edit]

If you nominate a page for deletion under this criterion, please consider placing the following code:

{{subst:Db-disambig-notice|PageName|header=1}}

...on the User talk page of the main contributor(s) to the page, replacing PageName with the name of the page being marked for deletion. This will display the following user warning template:

==Speedy deletion nomination of [[:{{{1}}}]]==

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on [[:{{{1}}}]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by [[:{{{1}}}|visiting the page]] and removing the speedy deletion tag.
