Template:Db-a3/sandbox
This Template:Pagetype may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion as an article that contains no content whatsoever, or consists only of external links, category tags, a "see also" section, a rephrasing of the title, attempts to correspond with the person or group named by its title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, chat-like comments, template tags, and/or images. Disambiguation pages and redirects are not eligible for this criterion. A very short article may still be a valid stub if there is sufficient context to identify the subject. See CSD A3.
