Speedy deletion template

Usage: {{speedy|reason}}

Template to nominate a page for speedy deletion. Should be placed at the very top of the page.

Template parameters[Edit template data]

This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Reason	1 reason	Reason why this page should be speedy deleted Example Spam	Line	required
No category	nocat	Any value will prevent this page from being put in Candidates for speedy deletion	Boolean	optional

This template puts a warning at the top of the page and adds the page to the Category:Candidates for speedy deletion.

It should be added as the very first line on pages that are obvious candidates for deletion (e.g. vandalism, test pages, etc.) and whose deletion would be uncontentious. For all other cases use {{delete|reason}}.

In user talk page/structured discussion/flow this template should be placed into the topic summary, not into the discussion itself.
