'''A:''' First, [[Deleted Page|DeletedPage]] was a [[Use Mod|UseMod]] mechanism. With [[Moin Moin|MoinMoin]] there is a different method of deleting pages, which I still have to figure out.

This page works with BackLinks:

If you find a page that you believe should maybe be deleted, write CandidateForDeletion on it. If you are sure that the page has to be deleted, then (and only then) write DeletedPage in the first line of it.

The candidate pages are often RedirectionPages, so be sure to check for the redirection notice when clicking on the pages in the list of BackLinks.

Note that the BackLinks also list the HomePage, which should however not be deleted :-). There has to be a page linking here, otherwise the only way to find it is through theBackLinks.

Q: If Deleted-Page is all done automagically, won't this page also be deleted in 30 days? //bnw

A: First, DeletedPage was a UseMod mechanism. With MoinMoin there is a different method of deleting pages, which I still have to figure out. Second, the old mechanism only applied ot pages, that started with the word DeletedPage. --DonRedman

Umm... but WikiHome/HomePage isn't in the list at all anymore. -- MartinRudat 10:41, 01 May 2006 (UTC)
