Encyclopedia:List of cleanup templates

From Hidden Frontier

Following is a list of the cleanup templates that are employed by Hidden Frontier Wiki. Where moving, merging and deletion is concerned, discussions open for two weeks after the original addition of a movement, merger or deletion tag, where discussion is to take place on the talk page of the article in question. At the end of two weeks, an administrator of the Wiki will make the final decision, and either approve, or deny, the tag request, and make the appropriate changes if required. The act of deleting, moving or merging an article, should not be undertaken by a contributor.

It is preferred that if you notice an article in error or in need of cleanup that you, as a contributor, conduct the cleanup. If you are unable to, however, these tags will at least let other contributors know that the articles in question are in need of attention. When placing a tag, particularly a content tag, please use the reason parameter to give a brief description of the article's problem. Please include a further description of the article's issue on the article's talk page. If no reason parameter is available for the tag in question, a reason included on the talk page will suffice.
