The BIONICLE Wiki:Deletion policy

The deletion policy dictates what should and shouldn't be deleted from this wiki.

Good cases

 * A page which contains information that has very little chances of becoming a real page. For example, a page with just "lol" will not go anywhere.


 * User pages can be deleted only if the user requests it. It is impossible to delete an account, though the user page can be deleted.


 * Advertising and spam. Posting random websites or things like "Google is awful; try Brand X Search Engine free for 10 days!" doesn't help the wiki grow at all.


 * Pages that are nonsense. For example, pages with titles such as "dahoshagohfoug" or "haovhauhgbovaov" have no point in being on this wiki.


 * Copyright violations. Taking images/pages from a website that say they are to be used only on their sites should not be used.


 * Useless or incorrect redirects. For example, one like #REDIRECT: That one guy in Bionicle isn't helping anyone.


 * Useless or incorrect categories, like a "poop" category.


 * Useless or incorrect templates, like a "poop" template.


 * Pages in another language. This wiki is English, no other languages are allowed.


 * Pages that are fanon. This is not a fanon wiki.
 * The easiest way to prevent your page being mistaken for fanon is to find at least one official source such as an official book or a Greg.


 * Wikipedia/BS01 copies. Unless they are allowed in the future, currently they should be deleted.


 * Very minor subjects. Articles like "This one rock that a Matoran sat on" and "Barges" won't get big.

Bad cases

 * Stubs. Stubs, no matter how small, could one day become a very long article.


 * A page that requires a cleanup. These pages are just in need of attention, they do not need to be deleted.


 * Vandalism. Blanking pages and inserting random words can be reverted, unless a page was created that had an obscene or random title or if there is nothing to revert to.
