Meta:Requests for deletion

When a page is deleted, the previous edit history cannot be viewed by non-administrators. Only administrators have the ability to delete and undelete pages. Note that Meta-Wiki does not back up deleted revisions, and they may be lost in the event of a serious server failure.

Procedure

Any user can propose that a page be deleted at Meta:Requests for deletion for any stated reason. Users may discuss the request in any language for at least two weeks; at the conclusion of the discussion, the entry is archived and the general consensus applied. When making a request, place {{rfd}} at the top of the page to notify users of the request, and create a new section at Meta:Requests for deletion. If a page listed there is kept, please remove the above notice from the page before removing the section from the request page.

Conversely, any user may request that a page be undeleted at Meta:Requests for undeletion. A list of recent deletions is automatically generated at Special:Log.
