Speedy deletions
Generally are placed at the top of the page. There is a way to add multiple speedies to one page. Example: See wp:speedy deletions Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 04:25, 15 September 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that one of your recent edits added several speedy deletion tags to a page. Please note that those tags should only be used when you firmly believe that the entire page should be deleted, not just a couple sections. Please do not mark individual sections for speedy deletion. To delete a section, simply remove the text from the article and explain why you are removing the text in your edit summary. If someone contests the removal by re-adding the content, discuss it with them on the article talk page. I hope I've adequately explained what speedy deletion templates (such as db-madeup and db-advert) are and how to use them. If not, feel free to type (This creates a notification that I'm wanted on this page.) just below this message, followed by any questions you have. I'll try to answer them as best I can. -- Gestrid (talk) 04:42, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
