This template is for speedy deletion of pages that are spam. It places pages into Category:Speedy Delete.
This template must only be used for pages which are entirely spam - such as advertising or nonsense/gibberish.
Alternative speedy deletion templates include {{vandal}} and {{relevance}}.
If there is any possible doubt or disagreement, you must use {{delete}} instead. This could include: duplicate pages; legitimate subjects that don't need their own page; unused templates/images/categories; or just something which shouldn't be there.
The deletion reason must be obvious, so just use:
{{spam}}
If it's not obvious, or if someone might disagree, you must use {{delete}} instead.
