  • To nominate multiple related articles for deletion or merging, follow the bundled nomination procedure.
  • To nominate a single article for deletion or merging, it is highly recommended that you use the simple Twinkle tool. If you want to do it manually instead, follow this process:
I – Put the AfD tags on the article(s).
  • Search previous AfD discussions to check if the article has been nominated at AfD before.
  • Based on how many times the article has been nominated at AfD, add the relevant templates at the top of the article:
    • If this is the first nomination, insert {{subst:afd1}} .
    • Instead, if the article has been nominated before, insert {{subst:afdx|2nd}}, {{subst:afdx|3rd}}, etc.
  • If you are nominating for merging, add the |outcome=merging and |target=First article you nominated parameters, e.g. {{subst:afd1|outcome=merging|target=foo}} or {{subst:afdx|2nd|outcome=merging|target=bar}}
  • Publish your changes, using an edit summary such as Nominated article at AfD; see [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NominationName]]. Do not mark the edit as minor.
    • The NominationName is normally the article name (PageName), but if it has been nominated before, use "PageName (2nd nomination)", "PageName (3rd nomination)", etc.
  • If you are nominating for merging, also tag the target article by inserting the following at the top of the article or target sections: {{Merge from|Name of the article|afd=NominationName|date=August 2026}}
II – Create the article's AfD discussion page.

The resulting AfD banner at the top of the article should contain a bolded link to a "Preloaded debate": click it and follow the instructions that will appear above the text editor.

Alternatively, you can also do it manually:

  • The resulting AfD banner will contain a bolded link that says "... discussion page": click it to open the AfD discussion.
  • Insert this text:
    {{subst:afd2 | pg=PageName | cat=Category | text=Why you are nominating the article}} ~~~~
    • Replace PageName with the name of the page, Category with a letter from the list M, O, B, S, W, G, T, F, and P to categorize the debate, and Why you are nominating the article with the reasons the article should be deleted or merged.
  • Publish your changes.
III – List the discussion in today's AfD log.
  • Edit today's AfD log
  • At the top of the list on the log page (there's a comment indicating the spot), insert: {{subst:afd3 | pg=NominationName}}
    Replace NominationName appropriately (use "PageName", "PageName (2nd nomination)", etc.)
  • Publish the page.

The logo of the Mediation Committee while it was active

The Mediation Committee was a panel of editors who resolved content disputes on Wikipedia articles by providing formal mediation. The Mediation Committee was established with the Arbitration Committee in 2003 by Jimmy Wales and was the last stage of content dispute resolution on the English Wikipedia. Mediation was entered into voluntarily by the parties to the dispute and did not result in binding resolutions. The Mediation Committee policy documented how the Mediation Committee, its mediators, and the formal mediation process operated. This policy was maintained by the Committee and was considered an authoritative codification of how Committee matters should be conducted.

After a substantial period of inactivity, the Mediation Committee was shut down by community consensus on 12 November 2018.
