[edit] Template documentation

This template is used to tag pages for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria, specifically [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#{{{1}}}|CSD {{{1}}}]]. There is a separate template for each criterion – see the table to the right.

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

Usage

{{db-{{{1}}}}}

This is the most basic form of the template

{{db-{{{1}}}|bot=ExampleBot}}

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