===Nomination guidelines===

<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Please follow these guidelines to make the deletion request as complete and clear as possible:</span>
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">When requesting deletion of a [[Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Deletion_policy#Duplicates|duplicate]], add the link to the duplicate image. The closing admin needs to see it.</span>
Line 48 ⟶ 45:
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">When nominating all the files of a category, list every file (not just the category itself). The closing admin needs to be able to easily click in the DR to access each image.</span>
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">When participating in a discussion of a mass deletion (i.e. 10+ images), strike out the images that are agreed to be kept, <s>strike</s> them in the original list.</span>
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">When requesting deletion of a nudity/sex/porn related images, mention this in the nomination. This allows reviewers and admins to prepare themselves or choose not to review.</span>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
AdministratorsUsers closing deletion requests are expected to provide adequate explanation for their decision. In many cases, where there is little discussion and no disagreement with the request, no details are required. However the more complex a discussion, and the more users have argued for the opposite outcome than the administrator's decision, the clearer the explanation of the decision is required. In any event, administrators are expected to clarify or explain their decisions on request.

Line 72 ⟶ 69:

# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Add {{tl|delh}} just above the section head with the file in it.</span>
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Add a line (<kbd><nowiki>----</nowiki></kbd>), then, on a new line, either '''Kept''' or '''Deleted''', an optional comment, your signature (<kbd><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></kbd>), and {{tl|delfDeletionFooter}} at the bottom of the request.</span>
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">If the discussion concluded to keep the file:</span>
## <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Add {{tl|Kept}} to the file talkpage.</span>
## <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Remove the deletion template from the file description page.</span>
#*<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Note: An easier way to do this is to use ''[[Help:Gadget-DelReqHandler|DelReqHandler]]'' ({{W|Internet Explorer}} is not supported), available to admins as a gadget under [[Special:Preferences]].</span>
# <span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">If necessary, add/re-categorize the deletion request into appropriate categories.</span>
 
Line 85 ⟶ 82:
<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
If you disagree with an admin's decision to delete a file, or not to delete it, you should first set out your reasons on the admin's talk page and ask for reconsideration.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
If the admin declines to reverse the decision, you can request a review:
*for a file that was deleted, at [[Special:MyLanguage/Commons:Undeletion requests|Commons:Undeletion requests]]
*for a file that was kept, by renominating it for deletion. This should not be done unless you can add new information or clarification.
</div>
 
<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Bear in mind, though, that admins cannot ignore Commons policies or any applicable copyright law even if a majority of users expressing opinions want them to do so.
