edit twinkle edit you may use twinkle to facilitate cfd nominations to install twinkle go to special preferences mw prefsection gadgets and check twinkle in the browsing section use the now installed xfd start a deletion discussion tab while viewing the page you want to nominate twinkle only allows you to nominate a single category or stub template for bundled nominations including multiple categories see masscfd masscfd edit you can use the script user qwerfjkl scripts massxfd to automatically make mass nominations manual nominations edit i preliminary steps shortcut wp beforecfd wp beforecfd before nominating a category read and understand the guidance for categorization category names and overcategorization for categories containing biographical articles read the guidance for categorizing articles about people for categories containing the user pages of wikipedians read the guidance for user categories in the following special cases if a category is a red link then it is already deleted or was never created in the first place and does not need to be nominated if a category is unpopulated use db catempty to request it be speedily deleted in 7 days note that some project categories may be empty as part of their typical process cycle before nominating a project category even if empty check special whatlinkshere to see if the category is or has been populated by a template and if so or even if the populating template has been deleted note the template name s in the cfd nomination if the category is populated solely by a template and you are proposing to delete both the category and template then follow the instructions at wikipedia templates for discussion if the template is a userbox follow the process at wp mfd instead in the case of a stub template see stub types below for further information see wikipedia categorization and wikipedia manual of style ii edit the category add one of the following templates at the beginning of the category page not the talk page of every category to be discussed for nominations involving large numbers of categories help adding these templates can be requested at wikipedia talk categories for discussion otherwise if nominating a single category for deleting use subst cfd for merging use subst cfm other category for merging to two categories use subst cfm double other category 1 other
