[edit] Template documentation

This template is used to tag pages for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria, specifically CSD A2. There is a separate template for each criterion – see the table to the right.

This template places the page in the category Candidates for speedy deletion.

Contents

[edit] Usage

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

[edit] Parameters

{{db-a2|source=SourceProject:SourcePageName}}

Where "SourceProject" is the project or language code and SourcePageName is the name of the page from which the content was taken..

{{db-a2|bot=ExampleBot|source=SourceProject:SourcePageName}}

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

Author notification

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

{{subst:foreign-warn|PageName|header=1|source=SourceProject:SourcePageName}}

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, SourceProject with the project or language code and SourcePageName with the name of the page from which the content was taken. This will display the following user warning template:

{{subst:#ifeq:{{{header}}}|1|==[[:{{{1}}}]]==}}
A tag has been placed on [[:{{{1}}}]], requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a foreign language article that was copied and pasted from another Wikimedia project, or was transwikied out to another project. Please see Wikipedia:Translation to learn about requests for, and coordination of, translations from foreign-language Wikipedias into English. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on [[Talk:{{{1}}}]]. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
