Speedy deletion declined: Special and differential treatment
Hello Onthisday, and thanks for your work patrolling new changes. I am just informing you that I declined the speedy deletion of Special and differential treatment - a page you tagged - because: where exactly does this exist on another project? Please review the criteria for speedy deletion before tagging further pages. If you have any questions or problems, please let me know.  So Why  09:34, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello. When you patrol new pages, all articles that you have looked at should be marked patrolled, whether you marked them for deletion or deemed them acceptable, unless you are not sure. This saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thank you. Marcus  Qwertyus  (signs his posts) 21:24, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

CSD templates
Please be more mindful of what you tag as what; specifically, do not over use the "nonsense" template. Big foot wasn't nonsense, although it was stupid--but that's easily solved (click on it). Matthew Craig Hill is really an attack page (since lots of kids think that "gay" is an insult), and while it was stupid and nonsensical also, it was not nonsense as defined in Template:Db-g1, which specifically excludes bad English and vandalism. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 21:28, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
