Template talk:Delete

Imprvement
I took a look at the current Delete template, and it is very plain jane. I wrote an extra line to link the user to the talk page (to discuss deletion), which could be added underneath the current message, so that users can discuss deletions. I haven't implimented it yet, as I wanted some input beforehand. The code is: To debate the deletion of this article, visit the |talk page. --Spindle 01:51, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree the situation should be better explained. Good idea linking to the talk page, but I suggest this wording:

This page has been tagged for deletion by a user for the following reason:

To contest this deletion, create a topic on the |talk page and change this template to
 * Then a different template called Template:Contestdelete should be made so that if a user does contest the deletion, the admin (and other editors) will know to check for backing up arguments before making a final decision. Is this a good idea or should it just be kept to one template? --Gnu32 02:20, 5 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Eh, I don't think you really need to have a contested (even a parameter). The admin should check if there is discussion or the delete reason is valid. --JonTheMon 04:15, 5 February 2011 (UTC)

Change of color?
I think it'd be appropriate to change the color of the delete template to the same color as the disclaimer template, so it stands out from the other message-boxes and shows its importance. Does anyone agree?--Quatroking -  MCWiki Administrator  15:25, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Disable notice template cat on template pages
Can the arg "nocat=1" be added as includeonly so that templates tagged with this do not add to the categroy "notice templates"? – KnightMiner  (t·c) 22:17, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Author request
I think author requests should have there own template. It would be as follows: 71.212.10.80 01:00, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
