Created page with ":If you have come to this page from a page you previously created that has now been deleted, this is likely to be because you tried to add content to the Whirled Wiki instead..."

New page

:If you have come to this page from a page you previously created that has now been deleted, this is likely to be because you tried to add content to the Whirled Wiki instead of a relevant wiki. Please try Wikicities to find an appropriate spot. See the [[Wikicities:list of Wikicities|list of Wikicities]] to find the right one, or [[Wikicities:start a new Wikicity|start a new Wikicity]] for your content.

There are a few, limited, cases where pages may be '''[[deletion|deleted]] speedily'''. Non-admins can ask for an [[Whirled:Administrators|admin]] to delete such a page simply by adding a {{tl|delete}} tag.

A list of pages to be deleted can be found at [[:Category:Candidates for speedy deletion]].

Pages you want deleted that may not be speedily deleted should first be discussed at [[Proposed deletions]].

When deleting, check the page history first to see if you can revert to an older version instead of deleting the entire page.

You can consider turning problematic pages into relevant redirects as an alternative to deletion.

Ideally, when an admin deletes a test page or other page with no useful content, it is a good idea to put a note on the author's talk page explaining things, and preserving the deleted content, pointing them to the [[sandbox]] in cases of tests.

#Broken redirects or ones caused by typos during a page move.
#Duplicate images
# Talk pages of already deleted articles
# User talk pages of non-logged in users where the message is no longer relevant (This is to avoid confusing new users who happen to edit with that same IP address.)
#Empty categories
#User and talk pages on request of the user, where there is no significant abuse, and no administrative need to retain the page.
