This page describes how to list for deletion articles and their associated talk pages. See the related pages for templates, categories, redirects, stub types, pages in the Wikipedia namespace, user pages, or images and other media, or use copyright violation where applicable.


To list a single article for deletion for the first time, follow this three-step process:

I.
Put the deletion tag on the article.

  Insert the {{subst:afd1}} tag at the top of the page.

  • Please do not mark the edit as minor.
  • Please include in the edit summary the phrase
    nominated for deletion: see [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName]]
    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
  • You can check the "Watch this page" box to follow the page in your watchlist. This allows you to notice if the AfD tag is removed by a vandal.
  • Save the page.

(If the article has been nominated for deletion before, use {{subst:afdx}} instead of {{subst:afd1}}. See Template Talk:afdx. This does not include articles that have only had the {{prod}} tag removed.)

II.
Create the article's deletion discussion page.

  The resulting AfD box at the top of the article should contain a link to "Preloaded debate" in the AfD page.

  • Click that link to open the article's deletion discussion page. Some preloaded text and some instructions will appear.
  • Give a reason for the deletion and a category for the debate (instructions will be on the page).

OR

  • Click the link saying "this article's entry" to open the deletion-debate page.
  • Insert this text:
    {{subst:afd2 | pg=PageName | cat=Category | text=Reason the page should be deleted}} ~~~~
    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion, Category with a letter indicating the category of the debate, and Reason... with the reasons you think the page should be deleted.
  • Consider checking "Watch this page" to follow the progress of the debate.
  • Please use an edit summary such as
    Creating deletion discussion page for [[PageName]] because ...
    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion and providing reasons for deletion.
  • Save the page.
III.
Notify users who monitor AfD discussion.
  • Copy the tag below, and then click  THIS LINK to open the deletion log page. At the bottom of the log page, insert:
{{subst:afd3 | pg=PageName}}

replacing PageName appropriately.

  • Include the discussion page's name in your edit summary like
    Adding [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName]]
    replacing PageName with the name of the page you are proposing for deletion.
  • Save the page. Your insertion will be automatically expanded to the same form as the preceding lines in the file: {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}}.

(If you used template {{subst:afdx}} instead of {{subst:afd1}}, use "PageName (2nd nomination)" instead of "PageName" for a second nomination, etc.).

To list multiple related pages for deletion see here.

WikiProject User scripts may have some scripts to streamline these steps.

Once listed, deletion discussions can, optionally, also be transcluded into an appropriate deletion sorting category, such as the ones for actors, music, academics, or for specific countries; which helps attract people familiar with a particular topic area. Please see the list of categories.

ReportVandal

I.
Warn User

  Before adding a vandal here be sure the user has been warned.

On the user's talk page, warn that his/her behavior is not appropriate and is considered vandalism. Use the appropriate warning template, adding 'subst:' before each. For example, instead of using {{test}}, use {{subst:test}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Wait to see if the vandalism continues. Only add users to the list who continue to vandalize after being warned.
However, users known to be vandals (those who vandalize the same article with similar material, for instance) may be reported immediately.
II.
Determine Severity

  Determine the severity of the vandalism:

Severe: Hateful; critical subtle edits (such as changing dates); stating lies; redirects; etc.
Moderate: High-profile (such as article blanking); spam linking; disruptive; etc.
Low: "Stupid" edits (such as adding the word "penis" to every sentence); non-critical subtle edits; etc.
III.
Add Vandal

  Using the edit button next to the appropriate section, add the vandal at the top of the list.

Enter the following text:
{{vandal|IP or username of vandal}} ~~~~
If the vandal has a username with spaces in it, instead use:
{{vandal|Username with spaces|Username_with_underscores}} ~~~~
If the vandal is operating under an anonymous IP address, report under IP Addresses. If the vandal is a logged-in user, report under Registered users. Include a brief description of the nature of the vandalism. Use the vandal account name or IP address as your edit summary.
IV.
Monitor Vandal

  Determine that the vandal has been warned on his or her talk page. If vandalism persists after five minutes:

Determine if the vandal has been blocked by visiting Special:Ipblocklist.
If the vandal was blocked, but vandalism persists, file a new report under Possible sockpuppets.
If the vandal was not blocked, visit WP:AIV and post the report there.

TestTemplates

These templates should always be used with the subst: keyword, as suggested on Wikipedia:Template substitution. They are shown without subst: here to reduce the space occupied by this large table. For example, type {{subst:test}}, not {{test}}, to warn common first-time vandals.

To coordinate numbers, the previous blanking 2, 3, and 4 templates have been moved because they were out of sync with the numbering usage with other templates. The old templates, though not listed, can still be used as they redirect to the new name and number.

The numbering system being used across the templates is simple:

0. Good faith edit
1. General note
2. Could be seen as vandalism
3. Warning to stop
4. Final warning
5. Blocked
6. Blocked plus severe warning

If you are creating new templates, please follow the numbers above, even if you are not creating templates using all the numbers. That way, by using the right number, users will be able to know automatically what category of message the template refers to.

USAtags

Looking for the right copyright tag?

See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for a full list of tags available. The following are applicable within the United States.

USA public domain images

  • {{money-US}}—for images of the official currency of the United States. These are in the public domain. (See also {{money}}.)
  • {{PD-art-US}}—for images of works of art published in the United States prior to 1923.
  • {{PD-flag-US}}—for images of national, governmental, or historical flags out of copyright in the United States
  • {{PD-US}}—for copyright-expired images in the US (mainly those published pre-1923). Also for works not eligible for copyright under US law. (May be preferable in some cases vs. {{PD-old}} for US-originating images.)
  • {{PD-US-patent}}—for images from descriptions of US patents. These are in the public domain, though the actual inventions depicted might be encumbered by patents. [2] This does not prevent us from describing them, since we are not trying to construct or sell the inventions.
USA federal government images
USA military public domain images
