Administration stuff

Pages for consideration for deletion

Ordinary wiki users cannot delete pages. The alternatives are:

  1. Revert to a previous state or remove content,
  2. Rename the page by moving it (see the 'More' dropdown next to the search box,)
  3. Mark for deletion. To view the pages requested for deletion see the Category:Deletion page.

To suggest a page for deletion

Use this Banner and Category template. Copy, and paste the following code at the top of the page:
{{Template:Banner|'''!'''|Candidate for deletion.}}
[[Category:Deletion]]

It's not always desirable to delete content, it may be better to retain it to help the Administrator make a final decision.

Default MediaWiki installation’s page content

(Please retain until we get better at this, it’s probably useful.)
