This template is used to notify users that a page has been speedily deleted under more than one of the speedy deletion criteria. The criteria supported by the template can be seen in the table on the right. Only codes with "Yes" in the Sppt column are supported.

Usage

This template is substituted on the user talk page of the user who created the page that has been deleted. In the first unnamed parameter, put the name of the page that was deleted, and in subsequent unnamed parameters, put the names of the speedy deletion criteria that it was deleted under.

Example:

{{subst:db-deleted-multiple|Page title|G11|G12|etc.}}

Parameters

Required parameters

• The first unnamed parameter is required. This is the title of the page that has been deleted.
• If one of the parameters listed is "A10", then an |article= parameter is also required. This is the name of the article that the deleted page was duplicating. (See section A10 of the criteria for speedy deletion.)

Optional parameters

• All of the speedy deletion criteria are optional. If no criteria are specified, the template outputs a generic notice.
  • The template accepts up to ten speedy deletion criteria (unnamed parameters 2-11).
• url:- If one of the speedy deletion criteria is G12 or F9, the source URL of the copyright violation can be added using |url=url of copyright violation.
• source:- If one of the speedy deletion criteria is A2, the name of the source article can be added using |source=xx:article name. "xx" is the language code or interwiki code of the project on which the article exists, and "article name" is the name as it exists on that project. Please do not enclose the name with square brackets [[ ]] - if you use square brackets, the template will not display properly.
• nowelcome:- By default this template will leave a {{First article}} welcome message if the talk page is a red link, i.e. if the user being warned is a new user. If |nowelcome=yes is specified, no welcome message will be generated.
• nothanks:- If a {{First article}} welcome message is generated, by default it includes the text "thank you for your contributions". If |nothanks=yes is specified, this text will be omitted.
  • If G10 is specified as one of the unnamed parameters, this is set to "yes" by default.
• wizard:- If |wizard=yes is specified, a message box giving advice on creating articles is included.
  • The default behaviour is to include the message box if any of the unnamed parameters correspond to the following criteria: G1, G2, G4, G11, G12, A1, A2, A3, A7, A9, or A10. However, the message box will not be shown by default if either G3 or G10 are specified.
• willprovide:- Sometimes the template will include a sentence indicating that the user may request undeletion at WP:RFUD. You can choose to include this sentence by specifying |willprovide=yes, or to omit it with |willprovide=no.
  • The default behaviour is to omit the sentence if any of the following criteria are present: G1, G3, G10, G12, F1, F2, F7, F9, C1, R2 or R3.
