Template:Db deleted doc

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This is a boilerplate template used to create documentation pages for the speedy deletion post-deletion notification templates.

Usage[edit]

This template should be substituted on to the documentation subpage of the post-deletion speedy deletion notification template. Basic usage is as follows:

{{subst:db deleted doc
|criterion       = <!-- G1, G3, A7, etc. -->
|criterion-desc  = <!-- patent nonsense, vandalism, etc. -->
|speedy-template = <!-- db-nonsense, db-vandalism, etc. -->
|twinkle         = yes
|namespace       = yes 
|nowelcome       = yes
|header          = yes
|header-text     = yes
|demo            = yes
|cat-name        = <!-- nonsense-deleted, vandalism-deleted, etc. -->
}}

This template uses subpages to make the speedy deletion post-deletion notice documentation pages both flexible and easy to maintain. These subpages are usually transcluded on the documentation subpage, but they can also be substituted if desired - see the individual subpages for instructions on how to do this.
