Template:Db notice doc/lead/doc

This template is used to create the lead section for the documentation pages of the different speedy deletion notification templates. This template affects all of the notification templates - if you only want to edit the documentation for one particular notification template, please go back to the documentation page for that template and add your new text directly after the {{db notice doc/lead}} text.

Usage

This template should usually be transcluded. However, it is also possible to substitute it if a customized version is needed for an individual documentation page.

Basic usage

{{db notice doc/lead
|criterion       = <!-- G1, G3, A7, etc. -->
|criterion-desc  = <!-- patent nonsense, vandalism, etc. -->
|speedy-template = <!-- db-nonsense, db-vandalism, etc. -->
}}

Parameters

|criterion=

This is the abbreviation of the speedy deletion criterion used by the notice. For example, G1, G3, or A7.

|criterion-desc=

A short description of the speedy deletion criterion. For example, patent nonsense or vandalism.

|speedy-template=

The speedy deletion template used in conjunction with the warning template. For example, db-nonsense or db-vandalism.

Substituting

If the text of this template is too restrictive and you want to make a custom version for an individual template documentation page, you can substitute the template. To do this, simply add subst: after the two opening curly braces to the template that already exists on the documentation page:

{{subst:db notice doc/lead
|criterion       = <!-- G1, G3, A7, etc. -->
|criterion-desc  = <!-- patent nonsense, vandalism, etc. -->
|speedy-template = <!-- db-nonsense, db-vandalism, etc. -->
}}

After you have substituted the template, you can customize the text however you want.
