When to use

This template was originally intended to alert another editor that you are considering the deletion of an article by leaving a message on their User Talk page; this is the 2^nd Step of the Protocol to minimize friction from proposed and speedy deletions.

As it turns out, editors may also use this template to flag the questionable editor's creative activities for closer scrutiny during future sessions.

Usage

Depending on how you do it, you may or may not want the template to generate a section header automagically.

Note that no default signature is provided, so you should either append "~~~~" or your own custom signature. Also, this template must be substituted.

---

Default: {{subst:Flag-editor/doc |(ArticleName) |(Guideline)}}.

No section header is generated. (ArticleName) is the only required argument. Omitting (Guideline) will result in a generic but rather verbose message with a comprehensive list of notability guidelines, so one should always be specified.

The recognized values for (Guideline) are:

• Academics
• Biographies or People
• Companies or Groups
• Fiction
• Movies
• Music
• Web

---

Linked Header: {{subst:Flag-editor/doc |(ArticleName) |(Guideline) |header=1}}.

== Flagging ArticleName for further review ==

---

Custom Header: {{subst:Flag-editor/doc |(ArticleName) |(Guideline) |header=1 |header-text=(your header text)}}.

== your header text ==

Note: You must provide (ArticleName), or else it will not display correctly.

Optional parameter

If you are not feeling particularly helpful, then you may add noassist=1 to omit the following offer:

… and remember, there was a time when I knew less about how Wikipedia works than you know right now… and I am always available to help you become a more proactive contributor.

otherwise the green text will be displayed by default, e.g.,

{{subst:Flag-editor |(ArticleName) |(Guideline) |header=1 |noassist=1 }}

Removal of speedy deletion tag

Note that this template also includes the following साँचा:tl template in a comment at the end … this is in case the author removes the साँचा:tl and you (or Some Other Editor) need to give them a warning … just remove the comment tags and you have a generic warning in front of your previous signature.

<!--
===Removal of speedy deletion tag===
{{subst:Uw-speedy1}} … DO NOT remove the {{tl|Db}} tag yourself!
I have restored it … please read [[Wikipedia:Three-revert rule]]
and don't do it again, or you may get [[WP:BLOCK|blocked]] from editing here.
