Parameters
- Required parameters
criterionis the Criterion number from Wikipedia:Speedy deletion criteria. Do not create a CSD template which does not already have a CSD criterion.1is the text which will go in bold immediately after "may qualify for speedy deletion". Note that there is no space between the word "deletion" and the parameter – if you want to continue the sentence without punctuation, use an HTML space ( ) to prevent the template 'eating' the leading space. A trailing full stop is already included in db-meta, so don't add it to this parameter
- Recommended parameters
These parameters are generally used in all speedy deletion templates based on db-meta, and some may break other templates/scripts if they are omitted.
2is the text which appears in italics after1. This should be a complete sentence, minus trailing punctuation (a full stop is included in db-meta).tempis the user warning template which corresponds to the CSD criterion. For instance,{{db-a1}}uses Template:empty-warn, so passes the parameter|temp=empty-warn. All such warning templates should be categorised at Category:CSD warning templatessummaryis the brief summary which will be preloaded into the deletion confirmation screen. There is no need to include the CSD criterion as this is added automatically.botis the name of the bot account that tagged the page for deletion, if applicable. This should be passed through to the specific deletion template, using|bot={{{bot|}}}. It should not be called directly from db-meta.rawis used for generating a simple deletion message with no message box. It should be passed through to the specific deletion template, using|raw={{{raw|}}}. This parameter is used by {{db-multiple}} to generate the notices about individual speedy deletion criteria.
- Optional parameters
rationaleadds a custom deletion rationale in red after the speedy deletion criterion number.self: if this parameter exists, there is no message about not removing speedy deletion templates from things you have created/uploaded yourself.notesis a space for notes. It appears after the notice about using the talk page for contesting speedy deletions, and before the message only visible to admins.anoteadds an extra custom note to the message only visible to admins.temp2allows the addition of extra parameters to the end of the user warning template specified in|temp=.sig: if this exists, the four tildes normally appended to the user warning template text are removed.imageadds an image to the right-hand side of the template. Include only the image name; do not add "File:" or "Image:".wikiis the interwikimedia link for the image named in|image=, if it is not on the English Wikipedia.blanked: if this exists, a message box is shown beneath the main deletion template that says "This page has been blanked as a courtesy."blanked-textis the custom text for the "blanked" message box.|blanked=must exist for this to work.pleaseblank: if this exists, a message box is shown beneath the main deletion template that says "Please blank this page so that it only contains the deletion template."divblank: if this parameter exists, the code<div id="AttackPage" style="display:none">is added to the end of the deletion template, which prevents all subsequent content on the page from being displayed.help: passhelp=offto hide the message to the nominator about notifying the author.
Other notes
- For templates which have variants, like
{{db-g6}}and{{db-a7}}, it is recommended to base the variants on those templates, rather than directly on db-meta. For instance,{{db-band}}calls{{db-a7}}which in turn calls db-meta, rather than db-band calling db-meta directly. - All CSD templates using db-meta produce two invisible spans which may be useful for client-side java script:
<div id="delete-criterion"></div>contains only the CSD criterion ("A1", "P2", "R3", etc.)<div id="delete-reason"></div>contains a complete, legible deletion log summary which is suitable for preloading into the deletion confirmation screen.
