1. Usage
The ArticleToDelete template is used to request the deletion of a page. It should be added as the very first line on the page that you believe should be deleted from the wiki.
It puts a message box with a "pink garbage can" icon in the page, and adds this page to the Candidates for deletion category.
Wiki maintainers periodically have a look at this category, and delete the pages that belong to it.
Usage: {{ArticleToDelete | <reason> | <signature>}}
Where <reason> and <signature> are mandatory parameters:
- <reason> is the reason supplied for the deletion
- <signature> is the signature of the requester. It is recommended to use
~~~~
wiki markup to sign the request
