This template is used to tag pages for speedy deletion under the speedy deletion criteria, specifically CSD F8. There is a separate template for each criterion – see the table to the right.

This template places the page into the category: Candidates for speedy deletion.

{{db-f8}}

{{db-f8|bot=ExampleBot}}

Bot accounts will specify the |bot= parameter to notify the reviewing admin that the page was tagged by an automated process.

{{db-f8|NameOnCommons}}
