[edit] Policy link

{{editprotected}}

The link to the policy can be updated to Wikipedia:Categories for Discussion policies for simplicity and to avoid unnecessary redirects, as well as to avoid disconcerting people who may notice that "discussion" links to "deletion". - Fayenatic london (talk) 17:50, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Y Done. --ais523 17:54, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy Delete

{{edit protected}} Please add this line to the top as the template falls under T3 and is no longer needed for the new process.

<noinclude>{{db-t3|1=~~~~~|2=cfd1}}</noinclude>

Oppose CSD. See also WT:CFD. - jc37 04:46, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

I've disabled the edit-protected request for speedy deletion as it seems beyond its scope, and there is a distinct lack of consensus. The template is still widely linked from policy pages for example. Please get some consensus. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 22:17, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
