When to use

Generally deletion should be avoided, where possible redirects should instead be used to point to a relevant page.

Articles / Other

If a page is to be deleted, editors should check that there are no active links to the page using Special:WhatLinksHere.

Files

Files should have deletion requested as soon as they are unused (Usage is listed on the file's page) with no alternative usage in the short term.

How to use

Whole Article / Other

Place the following at the top of the page:

{{subst:Deletion Requested}}

Specific Section in Article

Place the following at the start of the section:

{{subst:Deletion Requested\|small=left}}
