[edit] Usage

please add {{prod-2}} to an artile if and only if

  1. It currently has the {{prod}} tag applied to it;
  2. You have read the article, and considered whether it can be improved or altered so that deletion is not needed; and
  3. After that review, you agree with the nomination that deletion is appropriate, and that it is plausible that no one will object.

[edit] Removal of the bit about the old proposed deletion log

I have commented out the bit about the proposed deletion log as it is unavailable. Feel free to toss it out entirely if needed. --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 17:35, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

I don't really understand points 2 and 3. Let me see if I get this right: I should use this tag if the article is already prodded and I believe the article could be cleaned up, but in its current shape it should be deleted. Is that how this work? Thanks. -- ReyBrujo 05:25, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

No, it means you should use this tag if you have considered whether or not the article can be cleaned up, and decided that, no, it can't be, and that therefore it should indeed be deleted. --Stormie 03:26, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Subst

Should this template have a subst prefix - ie {{subst:prod2}}? — Tivedshambo (talk to me/look at me/ignore me) —  20:51, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm guessing not. {{Prod}} didnt for a long time, either. The only reason it finally became a subst template was it's now substing for another template, namely {{dated prod}}, which isn't subst'ed. On the other hand, I'm absolutely the wrong person to ask about these things, it's just my 2¢. --Storkk 23:15, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
It is extremely confusing to have {{prod}} being a subst yet {{prod2}} not, though. I'm not familiar with how easy it would be to do so, but I'd have thought the two templates were so similar that bringing them into line should be a high priority. Loganberry (Talk) 15:00, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
