Deletion Template[]
To use the deletion template, add {{delete}} to the top of the article that you wish to be reviewed for deletion.
Sysops will delete articles marked for deletion a few days after the tag is added to the page, assuming no dissent in the talk page. Contested deletes must reach a consensus for deletion before a sysop will delete the article; they will delete a few days after the last meaningful comment posted after the consensus is reached. As a matter of tact, sysops generally avoid deleting articles they themselves mark as candidates for deletion.
To see which articles contain the deletion template, see Category:Candidates for deletion.
