FamilySearch Wiki:Deletion Guidelines for Administrators: Difference between revisions

To delete an article, a moderator makes sure that the deletion flag has been left on the page for five days to allow other users to dispute the deletion. Controversial article/pages can be proposed or flagged for deletion. Once proposed, if not contested within 5 days, an administrator or moderator may delete them. The moderator should read the discussion page to review users comments and determine if the page is truly worthy of deletion. If the page deletion is being contested the moderator may choose to wait before deleting the page. Moderators should consider all comments and arguements regarding the proposed deletion. Moderators are not required to delete pages. If the moderator does not feel comfortable deleting a page, a sysop or administrator may be asked to assist.
