Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion/Templates (images)

Reasons for changing speedy-delete template wording: Implementation:
 * Correspond more closely with the criteria for speedy deletion (CSD)
 * Brevity/clarity
 * Avoid using italics in a way that might imply a direct quote of the CSD
 * Often saying "(See CSDXX)" rather than just "(CSDXX)" to avoid implying a direct quote
 * To delete "The reason given is:", for brevity, transclude new template Template:speedybase instead of Template:db-meta.

It's suggested that discussion take place at: (Moonriddengirl and Coppertwig.)

Comments
I9 needs to say there is no free license "other than through tags" which is what the criteria says. Otherwise, a self is enough to defeat this. -Nard 02:22, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I inserted "other than through tags" into the above suggested wording and the draft template Template:db-i9. --Coppertwig (talk) 18:34, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

I support these changes by Moonriddengirl and have copied them to the draft templates: Changing a period to a comma in I3;  inserting "or other medium" in I5 (actually, she had "media" and I changed it to the singular "medium"), and inserting "or tagged replaceable fair use" in I7. --Coppertwig (talk) 01:44, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Details of I6 wording
Slight differences in wording (involving the words "which" and "and"):
 * In the table above: "as a non-free image or medium claiming fair use but with no fair use rationale which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days"
 * Happy-melon's version in template which has two "which's": "...as a non-free image or media file, which claims fair use but has no fair use rationale, which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days."
 * I, thinking that if there are two "which's" it's good to have an "and" between them, just changed it in the template to: "as a non-free image or media file, which claims fair use but has no fair use rationale, and which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days" --Coppertwig (talk) 01:58, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

I7 wording (grace period)
The template currently says "as a non-free image that fails some part of the non-free content criteria, after the uploader has been given appropriate notification. The grace period is 48 hours for images uploaded after 2006-07-13, or seven days for images uploaded before that date or tagged with the Replaceable fair use template or similar" I like Happy-melon's use of "grace period" in the wording like that; however, this still suffers from the problem I described at WT:Criteria for speedy deletion. I suggest changing the 2nd part to one of these (I prefer the first): --Coppertwig (talk) 13:12, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * "The grace period is 48 hours, except that a grace period of seven days is given for images uploaded before 2006-07-13 or tagged with the Replaceable fair use template or similar."
 * "The grace period is 48 hours for images uploaded after 2006-07-13 which are not tagged with the Replaceable fair use template or similar, and seven days otherwise."
