Warning
[edit]Hi Lantus. I noticed that a deletion request you made was not done correctly.
This is not an unusual mistake, but I'm leaving you this message to help you get this right in the future.
There are several steps to making a deletion request (DR) correctly; among other things you must transclude the deletion into the correct daily DR list, and to notify the page creator and optionally other human (non-bot) editors of the page. By far the easiest way to do all of this correctly is to use the automatic Nominate for deletion or Nominate category for discussion tool in the Tools menu on the sidebar per COM:DR#Starting requests and COM:CFD#Starting requests, which takes care of all that using vetted Javascript. If you prefer to add the {{Delete}} template or {{Category for discussion}} template manually, you are required to follow the instructions in the template, including the "Click here to show further instructions" portion (or Commons:Deletion requests/Listing a request manually policy or the "By hand" portion of COM:CFD#Starting requests, normally collapsed). Again, though, there is no need to follow complex instructions if you use the automatic tools.
Also worth knowing: on Commons, {{Delete}} is not a "speedy delete" request like it is on many other projects; instead, it starts a discussion of whether the file should be deleted. If you think a particular media file really obviously does not belong on Commons, see the instructions at Commons:Criteria for speedy deletion. Common cases that are better handled with a speedy delete than a DR include:
- own work within 7 days (COM:CSD#G7)
- empty category never likely to be used (COM:CSD#C2).
Common bad reasons people have for making DRs in the first place include:
- after renaming a category, trying to delete the resulting redirect in violation of policy COM:CATRED
- making a DR for a file where there is already a current DR
- trying to delete one's own work within 7 days (use {{G7}} instead)
- placing {{Delete}} on the deletion subpage itself, or on a talk page.
Also, please don't use {{Ffd}} (that's an English Wikipedia thing).
If you have further questions about the deletion process, you can ask them at COM:Help desk or COM:Village pump. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:10, 9 July 2026 (UTC)
