Editing Template talk:Delete

Should there not be a bit where you write a reason for deleting the article? I will try and get it done.

:Technically, the reasons are all supposed to be on that pages for deletion page. [[User:XienZo|XienZo]] 18:42, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
I mean like so you write the reason in the template. Here is what i came up with
{|style="background: white; border: 3px double #b20016; -moz-border-radius: 10px; font-size:95%; width: 95%" align="center"
|colspan="2" align="center"|<div style="padding:3px; background-color:#b20016; -moz-border-radius: 7px; color:white;"><big>'''All worlds begin in darkness, and all so end.'''</big></div>
|-

|align="center"|'''This article/file is currently <span style="font-variant: small-caps; ">nominated for deletion:</span>'''<br/> '''<font color="black">{{{reason}}}</font>'''<br/>If you wish, please voice your opinion on its [[{{NAMESPACE}} talk:{{PAGENAME}}|<font color="black">talk page</font>]]<font color="black">.<br> You may continue to edit this page, however, do not remove this notice<br/>  until the discussion is closed.</font>

==Usage==
This is a Template used to nominate articles and media files for deletion. To use, please type '''<nowiki>{{VFD}}</nowiki>''' at the ''top'' of an article. The template will automatically add articles to ''[[:Category:Pages for deletion]]''.

You are encouraged to write a reason for the deletion.

{{VFD|reason=}}

But that would go against the deletion policy of having deletion discussions in the [[KHWiki:Pages for deletion]] instead of the talk page, so we can see all the pages and reasoning in one place. [[User:XienZo|XienZo]] 19:23, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
:But if you go to a page needing deleted, say honey bees, and the reason is with this template at the top of the page, with this template, it makes it a lot easier, as you just write it all up with one swift edit.

::Well, it'd make it easier for people who are just randomly checking pages, but it'll be harder for someone who's trying to deal with all the nominated articles at once. [[User:XienZo|XienZo]] 19:47, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
::Ok, how about a compromise. We keep putting reasons in the Pages for deletion page and we use the new template.

:::Oh Ultima, you are so sneaky. You dug yourself a pretty big hole by copying, and just reforming a template you stole from another wiki, it still says "VFD", srsly.

:::So, what Ultima is asking is this:
{|style="background: white; border: 3px double #b20016; -moz-border-radius: 10px; font-size:95%; width: 95%" align="center"
|colspan="2" align="center"|<div style="padding:3px; background-color:#b20016; -moz-border-radius: 7px; color:white;"><big>'''All worlds begin in darkness, and all so end.'''</big></div>

|<center>'''This article/image is currently nominated for deletion for ''{{{reason}}}''.''' If you wish, please voice your opinion on<br>
[[KHWiki:Pages for deletion]].<br> You may continue to edit this page, however, do not remove this notice until the discussion is closed.</center>
|}
:::Just adding a reason so users don't have to put it in the edit summary, and viewers no why others want it deleted. &nbsp;'''[[User talk:ILHI|<FONT color="red">I </FONT>]][[User:ILHI|<FONT color="red">Lion Heart</FONT>]][[User talk:ILHI|<FONT color="red"> I</FONT>]]''' 20:25, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

== Move to VFD ==
{{Azul|text=Does anyone care if I move it to VFD? Since Yuan, myself and others will be using this alot, it would be much easier if it was moved to VFD (Vote for Deletion), it's shorter and we are also use to using <nowiki>{{VFD}}</nowiki>. Any objections? If not, I will go ahead and move it.}}
{{ILHI|22:27, 11 April 2009 (UTC)|Strongly oppose. Delete is the standard everywhere but at the FFWiki. We recently had discussion at the FFWiki about moving the VFD template to Template:Delete. In the end nothing happened because discussions never get anywhere there. Ever.<br><br>If you just redirect "Template:VFD" here (note: I just did) it will work just like using <nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki> does.}}

== Split ==

Should we maybe split the deletion policy into its own page, like we do with other site policies? {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 23:11, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
