Template documentation

This template is used to tag pages for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria, specifically CSD G12. There is a separate template for each criterion – see the table to the right.

This template places the page in the categories Candidates for speedy deletion, and Copyright violations for speedy deletion.

Usage

The template should be placed at the top of the page to be deleted.

Parameters

{{db-g12|url=sourceurl}}

Where sourceurl is the full URL of the page from which the content was taken..

{{db-g12|bot=ExampleBot|url=sourceurl}}

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

Author notification

If you nominate a page for deletion under this criterion, please consider placing the following code:

{{subst:sd-copyvio|PageName|header=1|url=URL}}

On the User talk page of the main contributor(s) to the page, replacing PageName with the name of the page being marked for deletion, and URL with the URL from which the material was plagiarised. This will display the following user warning template:
