{{rn}}I know what you meanbut many pages that are unnecessary are not being tagged with those categories and is not sighted until later by an admin and it is hard to get sight of pages like that. Plus the legitimate pages are all monitored by admins and good editors so they won't be tagged with those categories. {{User:Finchelfanno1/SigSubst2|20:19,5/29/2011}} |

Is there a way to delete every page within a category? Finchelfanno1 (talk) 19:41,5/29/2011
- You could either do it manually by deleting every page yourself or get a bot to do it.--GodPray 19:43,5/29/2011
- Do you know how to get the bot? Finchelfanno1 (talk) 19:47,5/29/2011
- Thanks but if there is a bot then it will be easier for us to clean up the wiki and a normal user can also help us to delete by just tagging them with those categories. It will greatly help the glee wiki because sometimes users makes spam pages and it isn't sighted by an admin. Finchelfanno1 (talk) 20:08,5/29/2011
- What?
- If you're asking for it to run periodically, then I'd advise against it. It would be easier if admins just monitored the candidates for deletion page, as that would stop users tagging legitimate articles in the hope they'll be bot deleted and cause confusion. RandomTime 20:12, May 29, 2011 (UTC)

- The problems with those pages is that many users sees them but doesn't link them to an admin but they do tag them with those categories so we thought it would be better if there's an auto-delete options for it. Finchelfanno1 (talk) 20:22,5/29/2011
