Template:Db-move/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

Place {{db-move|1=page to be moved|2=reason}} at the top of the page to be deleted so that the deleting admin knows which page is to be moved to the title and can perform the move.

This template places the page in Category:Candidates for technical speedy deletion.

If the page to be deleted is a redirect, {{db-move}} can be placed either above or below #REDIRECT. If placed below, it will remain a redirect. If placed above, it will effectively break the automatic redirection; the link to the target page will still be visible below and can be followed as a soft redirection. The appearance of the soft redirection can be further improved by replacing #REDIRECT [[linked page]] with {{Soft redirect|linked page}}.
