Talk:Church Planting Ideas

Kevin, I want to delete a page because it is redundant. I moved the material to another page and am left with an empty page.

"Sometimes it is necessary to completely remove a page from the wiki, rather than just fix it or redirect it elsewhere.

Once you have become a sysop one of the first things you will notice is a brand-new "delete" tab at the top of most pages in addition to the normal ones. This will take you to a deletion prompt.

Once there, fill in the explanation and click "Delete page". Some versions of MediaWiki have a "Yes, I really want to delete this" checkbox, so tick that before clicking delete otherwise it will not work.

What should be deleted depends on the project's inclusion rules, but generally:

Newbie test pages Vandal pages Spam pages Copyvios Duplicates Project-incompatible pages...."

Can you make me a sysop? I thought I was one and so I should have a delete tab but sadly, I have none.

Done! But now you wield power can you enable emails from users? --Kev-The-Hasty 12:31, 27 June 2007 (BST)
