This template is for proposed deletion of articles. It places articles into Category:Delete.

If the article is spam or there is a very obvious reason for deletion, you can use {{spam}} or {{vandal}} to mark the page for speedy deletion. If there is any question, opinion, or reason why some people may disagree with the deletion, you must use {{delete}}.

This template should be used with a reason. You can add more detailed reasoning on the talk page.

Without a reason:

{{delete}}

With a reason:

{{delete|The information in this article is already on another page}}
