Candidates for speedy deletion (quoted from w:Deletion)

  1. No meaningful content or history (e.g. random characters).
  2. Test pages (e.g., "Can I really create a page here?").
  3. Pure vandalism (see also dealing with vandalism).
  4. Very short pages with little or no context (e.g., "He is a funny man that has created Factory and the Hacienda. And, by the way, his wife is great.")
  5. Reposted content that was already deleted according to policy.
  6. Pages that have been moved to another Wikicity because they were uploaded in the wrong place.
  7. Temporarily deleting a page in order to move a page.
  8. Broken redirects or ones caused by typos during a page move.
  9. Duplicate images
  10. Talk pages of already deleted articles
  11. User talk pages of non-logged in users where the message is no longer relevant (This is to avoid confusing new users who happen to edit with that same IP address.)
  12. Empty categories
  13. User and talk pages on request of the user, where there is no significant abuse, and no administrative need to retain the page.

Below is a list of pages marked for deletion. A sysop of Wikihack or Wikicities can delete a page because it is a speedy deletion candidate (see list above) or copyright violation (delete seven days after marked).

You can either add the mark to the top of the page, or you can blank the page and replace it with the mark.
