Pages for consideration for deletion
Ordinary wiki users cannot delete pages. The alternatives are:
- Revert to a previous state or remove content,
- Rename the page by Moving it (see the 'More' dropdown next to the search box.) Note: for non-sysops this automatically leaves a redirect to ensure links don't break.
- 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.

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