- See thedeletion log for all deleted pages.
This category contains pages tagged withspeedy deletion templates. Before speedily deleting a page, take the time to ensure that it meets thecriteria for speedy deletion, check thelinks, thehistory, and (for images) thefile links. If there is any doubt at all, switch the article to a process likeWikipedia:Proposed deletion that allows time for others to review the proposal.
Speedy does not mean immediate. Although many speedy-deletion candidates are processed within a few minutes, more complicated pages may remain in the list for several days.
Pages with attack titles: If you think these titles need redaction, please also check the patrol log, since the page may have been patrolled. Please also note that the author may have been given a warning about this page which they may have removed; and that there may be other incoming links (such as the tagger's own CSD tagging log).
