Use of {{db-banned}}

What is your rationale for stating that articles created by User:Voievod were created by a banned user? Is there a link showing this user was banned? --Ginkgo100^talk 23:09, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I found it in the block log. Cheers! --Ginkgo100^talk 23:10, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Use of {{db-banned}}, revisited

This template is only for use on pages created by banned users while they are banned. The user in question was not banned until he was indef blocked, which is a de facto ban. Before that, there was no ban, so pages he created cannot be speedily deleted for that reason. {{db-banned}} is used most often when banned users make socks to create new pages, since most banned users are also blocked. See blocking policy and banning policy for the difference between banning and blocking. If you think the article should be deleted, use proposed deletion or deletion discussion (see deletion policy for more information). --Ginkgo100^talk 16:29, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection

Let me know if you would like me to semi-protect your user page to prevent disruption by banned users. I would be happy to do so if you request it. --Ginkgo100^talk 02:23, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
