SmashWiki:Deletion policy

This page documents an official SmashWiki policy, a widely accepted standard that all users should follow. When editing this page, please ensure that your revision reflects consensus. If in doubt, consider discussing changes on the talk page.

As a wiki there will be some pages that are not up to standard. Pages that are inappropriate for this wiki may be nominated for deletion. All users are invited to participate in the discussions as to whether these articles should be deleted or not. The pages listed will be voted on to reach a consensus. Once a consensus has been reached or a length of time has passed, an administrator will review the discussion and decide what action should be taken.

The deletion policy dictates what should and shouldn't be deleted from this wiki.

How to list an article

1. Add your rationale for deletion on the talk page of the page you are nominating for deletion. If you do not complete this step, any user may remove your deletion nomination.
2. Add {{delete}} at the top of the page to be deleted itself. (If you are nominating a template for deletion, you should be sure not to include the deletion template within the template itself. Depending on the template, it may be advisable to add an unobtrusive notice to the template itself, so long as it does not interfere with the functionality of the template.)

Candidates for deletion

After you add the {{delete}} template, the page will appear in Category:Candidates for deletion. A discussion will be held on the corresponding talk page, where consensus will likely result in the article being kept, deleted, or merged. If, however, the page in question is an article about a smasher or a glitch and it is being considered because of a lack of notability or proof, respectively, and no proof (of notability) is provided within a specific length of time, the page may be deleted without discussion. Similarly, if a reasonable amount of time has elapsed since the addition of a delete template and no one has contested the deletion, the page in question may be deleted by an administrator without discussion.
