Deletion tags

Sorry I didn't get to you earlier (dealing with a virus). {{db-talk}} does mark talk pages that don't have articles for speedy deletion. A bunch (I think all) of the speedy deletion tags are listed at Wikipedia:Speedy deletions. Another useful section is Wikipedia:Template messages.

No problem, I understand. I went out on a limb and posted it anyway. It seemed to have worked and the page was deleted. I had no idea there was so much depth to Wikipedia. I thought it would just be about writing articles. It seems that there's a richness of politics and bureaucracy too. Fly by Night (talk) 12:48, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
