To delete a redirect '''without replacing it with a new article''', tagged the article with the '''{{tl|delete}}''' template as explain in the [[FamilySearch Wiki:Deletion Process|deletion process]]. | |||
Marking in this way is not necessary if you just want to replace a redirect with an article, or change where it points: see [[Help:Redirects#Changing a redirect|these instructions]] for help doing this. If you want to ''swap'' a redirect and an article, but are not able to move the article to the location of the redirect please use [[FamilySearch Wiki:Requested moves]] to request help from an [[FamilySearch Wiki:Administrators|admin]] in doing that. | |||
