Help:Delete

Any user can remove content from a page, but only administrators, content moderators and staff can delete pages. This is often done in cases of spam and vandalism, but may also be used to remove unwanted/obsolete pages.

Step by step
If you find a page that you feel should be deleted and do not have the rights to do so, contact your local administrators or content moderators. Otherwise, follow the steps below.

Deleting a page

 * To delete a page, hover over the arrow next to the "Edit" button at the top of the page, then click "Delete".
 * On the next page, you will see a box labeled "Delete".
 * The Reason drop-down has pre-written reasons for deleting the page. An additional reason can be supplied via the Other/additional reason" box.
 * Following the page is also possible when deleting a page. If the page is restored or recreated, a notification will be sent to your email address.
 * Click the "Delete page" button.
 * After the page is deleted, you will be redirected to the main page of the wiki where a banner will appear at the top confirming the page's deletion.
 * Special:Log/delete allows a review of all deletions on a wiki.
 * When viewing a previously deleted page, the log of the deletion is shown.

Restoring a page
Any deleted page can be restored by an administrator or content moderator.
 * To restore a deleted page, go to Special:Undelete.
 * Enter the deleted page title in the "Show pages starting with" box and click "Search".
 * Find the page that should be restored and click on it.
 * In the "Restore revisions" box, further directions are shown. Add a restoration reason in the "Reason" box and click the "Restore" button.
 * If no revisions are selected, all revisions will be restored.

Deleting a wiki
Wikis can only be closed by FANDOM Staff. To request a wiki's closure, please send a message to Special:Contact. However, closing wikis is rare as they are community projects, so please provide as much information as possible in your request to explain why.
