Any user can remove content from a page, but only admins can delete pages completely. This is often done in cases of spam and vandalism, but also to remove unwanted pages from the wiki.

Step-by-StepEdit

DeletionEdit

• When you are ready to delete a page, click the arrow on the "Edit" button next to the page title and then click “Delete.”

• On the next page, you will see a box labeled "Delete."

• The Delete box allows you to select a pre-written reason from the "Reason" drop-down menu. You can also supply one you wrote yourself in "Other/additional reason."

• Click the "Delete" button.

• You will be redirected to the main page of the wiki, where a green banner will appear at the top of the page confirming the page’s deletion.

RestorationEdit

• Any deleted page can be restored by an admin later. You can review all deletions in the deletion log, found at Special:Log/delete.
• To restore a deleted page, go to Special:Undelete.

• Enter the deleted page title in the "Show pages starting with" box and click "Search."
  • If you see a list of similarly named pages, find the one you want to restore and click that.

• In the "Restore revisions" box, take a read of the brief directions, then you can add a restoration reason in the "Reason" box.

• Click the "Restore" button.

• The page will be restored just as it was when it was deleted, and will appear immediately.

Deleting a wikiEdit

Wikis can only be closed by Wikia Staff. If you would like to request a wiki closure, please send a message to Special:Contact from the wiki. Wikis are rarely closed, however, as they are community projects, so please provide as much information as possible in your request.
