| Deletion is intended to permanently remove an item both from the current view of a FamilySearch Research Wiki page, but also from the history of that page. To permanently delete pages ultimately requires an administrator/sysop and follows a consensus process. Obscene or provocative pages will be deleted immediately. Those labeled or flagged as controversial may take longer to reach a consensus. To request a page deletion, users may add the deletion flags to pages they deem worthy of deletion. The flag should be left on the page for five days, except if the material merits immediate deletion. Examples of content that may justify [[Maintenance Templates|flagging for deletion]]: | | Deletion is intended to permanently remove an item both from the current view of a FamilySearch Research Wiki page, but also from the history of that page.
