Wikipedia talk:Deletion review/Discussions

Step #2 is absolutely incomprehensible to anyone new to wikipedia. Please make it more user friendly. Add some graphics please.Optimistic42 (talk) 15:55, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I would be nice if it included

Accessibility for newer users
I have added a table showing examples of opinions and some associated reasoning, shown in code form so that newer users can better understand both how to compose an opinion and what some acceptable reasonings might be. I realize we may not want complete novices to be getting involved in deletion review, and I doubt many will wander in casually, but I am not sure that leaving the technical parts of involvement undiscussed is a benefit either. If anyone thinks the reasonings behind the example opinions don't seem to match the corresponding opinion, please feel free to reword them. KDS4444 (talk) 07:39, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
