When a page on ChristianMedia.ca is deleted, the previous edit history cannot be viewed by non-administrators. Only ChristianMedia.ca Moderators have the ability to delete and undelete pages. Note that we do 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 English 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.

Request to delete a page now here.

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