A tag has been placed on Draft:Template:Link to remove, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.
This page has since been deleted. If you believe that this deletion was in error, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can request undeletion or raise the matter at deletion review.
 | This is the template sandbox page for Template:Db-nonsense-notice (diff). |
 | If you plan to make breaking changes to this template, move it, or nominate it for deletion, please notify Twinkle's users and maintainers at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle as a courtesy, as the standard installation of Twinkle adds and removes this template. Thank you! |
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Db-nonsense-notice}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |

Usage
If this template is used on a page that did not previously exist (that is, if the user receiving the notice is new user), the template automatically includes a {{first article}} welcome message. This welcome can be turned off with the |nowelcome= parameter as described below.
Basic usage
{{subst:db-nonsense-notice|PageName}}
Where PageName is the name of the page that has been tagged for speedy deletion.
Parameters
|nowelcome=- If this parameter exists, then the {{first article}} welcome message is not included, even if the page the notice is being placed on did not previously exist.
|header=- by default, the template adds a level two section header of "Speedy deletion nomination of PageName". To suppress the header, use
|header=no. |header-text=- a custom value for the header text.
|demo=- if you are demonstrating the template's functionality, transclude the template rather than substitute it, and use
|demo=yes. This will prevent the template from being automatically substituted by a bot. |namespace=- this is the namespace of the page tagged for speedy deletion. For example, if the page is in the "Wikipedia" namespace then the value would be
Wikipedia. It is not necessary to specify this parameter if the namespace is already included in the page name. If the page is in the main article namespace then this parameter should be omitted.
Examples
- No welcome message
{{subst:db-nonsense-notice|PageName|nowelcome=yes}}
- No header
{{subst:db-nonsense-notice|PageName|header=no}}
- Using a custom header
{{subst:db-nonsense-notice|PageName|header-text=Custom header text}}
- No welcome message and a custom header
{{subst:db-nonsense-notice|PageName|nowelcome=yes|header-text=Custom header text}}
- No welcome message and no header
{{subst:db-nonsense-notice|PageName|nowelcome=yes|header=no}}
