Jump to navigation Jump to search
This page is a translated version of the page Help:Requests for deletions and the translation is 100% complete.

Items which do not meet Wikidata's notability policy can be deleted. Please nominate items for deletions on Wikidata:Requests for deletions under the "Requests" section below. If it is obvious vandalism, just add the page directly (gadget available), or ping an administrator to delete it. Contact can also be made with an administrator in #wikidataconnect.

Please use {{Q+}} the first time you mention an item. Unless you use the gadget, please also ping the item's creator in your request (or ping the bot operator, when appropriate) if 1) the user is still active on Wikidata and 2) the user has contributed the majority of information in that item.

Please use Wikidata:Properties for deletion if you want to nominate a property for deletion.

Resolving entries

Before deleting items, check to ensure that they are not in use. This can be easily done with the "links" link below the header of each request.

Do not try to pre-emptively delete an item because its page is up for deletion on a Wikimedia project. The link will be removed by bots and reported here in the future if a deletion takes place.

Admins either delete the page or tag the request with {{Not deleted}}.

Archival

Wikidata:Requests for deletions is checked multiple times each hour, and the sections that contain {{Done}}, {{Deleted}}, {{Not done}}, {{Not deleted}}, or {{Didn't delete}} will be archived as long no new comments have been added to the section over the past 30 minutes.
