Forum:Deletion template: putting rationale into body of template itself

Should it be made necessary for User to put a reason for pages and images to be deleted, so other User know why the page is be considered for deletion. Along with that, should it been seen a vandalism if a User removes a deletion tag that has a reason on it? I think it will stop minor edit wars over the deletion tags, especially when Users refuses to accept that a page they create is being considered for deletion.

 * I think a reason should always be given for deletion; even obvious cases like spam pages could do with someone writing "spam" in the edit log.
 * Have we actually got a deletion policy? I've just realised I couldn't actually find one by clicking around in the Tardis: prefix.  I may just be missing it if it's there, but if it doesn't exist perhaps one should be put in place which contains relevant policies on adding or removing the deletion template.
