[edit] Requesting deletes

Hi LongIslander! Thanks for your message. To request deletion of an article you made in error, you can put this code at the top of the page in question:

{{db-author}}

When you save the page, you'll get a nice pink box which connects the page to the administration category for speedy deletions.

This applies only to article you have created and you have been the only one to edit substantively. Hope this helps! ЯEDVERS 19:02, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
