Template:Uw-draftfirst-empty
Thank you for your recent contributions. I noticed that you recently had one or more articles tagged for speedy deletion under criteria A1 or A3, because they didn't contain substantiative content. To avoid this in the future, you might want to consider creating the article in draftspace or your userspace first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary; this will give you more time to work on your article as pages created in this manner cannot be deleted for lacking content. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you.
Template documentation | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Uw-draftfirst-empty}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |

- Please remember to substitute the template using
{{subst:Uw-draftfirst-empty}}rather than{{Uw-draftfirst-empty}}. - To give greater detail to your message, you may add the article and some additional text to the end of the template. If such article or additional text includes a URL or anything which includes an equal sign ("="), it may break the parser's function unless you prefix the article or the text with a named template parameter. Use "
1=" if the article contains an equals sign and use "2=" if the additional text contains an equals sign (such as a URL). - Please refer to the index of message templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending.
- This template automatically populates the relevant category with the user page. If and when the user account gets blocked, or approximately eight weeks pass with no further action, that categorization is automatically removed.
- This standardized template conforms to guidelines by the user warnings project. You may discuss the visual appearance of these standardized templates (e.g. the image in the top-left corner) at the user warning talk page.
