Editing Template:Proposed deletion/doc (section)

== Usage ==
Place the following text at the top of the page being proposed for deletion.

<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>'''subst:proposed deletion'''|concern=<span style="color:gray">''concern''</span><nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>

Make sure to replace <code><span style="color:gray">''concern''</span></code> with a brief rationale why the page is being proposed for deletion.  The template ''must'' be [[WP:SUBST|substituted]], i.e. <code><nowiki>subst:</nowiki></code> must be used, otherwise an error will appear. When posted correctly, an emphatic 'proposed for deletion' notice will appear at the top of the page.

When saving the page, ensure that the [[Help:Edit summary|edit summary]] states that you have proposed deletion. You may also wish to post further information on the page's [[WP:TP|talk page]].

Once saved and substituted, this template will have been replaced with either {{tl|Proposed deletion/dated}} or {{tl|Proposed deletion/dated files}}. These helper templates should not be used directly.

=== Extended syntax ===
*<code>help</code>: pass <code>help=off</code> to hide the message to the nominator about notifying the author.
