Yeah, the speedy delete is something I've probably been overusing. I'm going to try to use the normal delete more.

Forums: Index Watercooler Delete vs. Speedy Delete

I'd like to take this opportunity to remind people that the Speedy Delete template should only be used on pages where there is no conceivable way that the page could remain on the wiki. Pages that qualify for this are either pages that are markedly spam (i.e. "ASDLKASJDNNDIS") or are immediate remakes of deleted pages. Pages that should not be tagged for speedy deletion include Smasher and crew pages of little notability and techniques/glitches that may not work. The point of speedy delete is that there need be no discussion of the deletion. However, presumption goes affirmative on pages staying on the wiki, so if there is any question, use the delete template, not the speedy delete.
