#REDIRECT [[Candidate for Deletion]]
This page works with [[Back Link|BackLink]]s:

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 [[Deleted Page|DeletedPage]] in the first line of it.

The candidate pages are often [[Redirection Page|RedirectionPage]]s, so be sure to check for the redirection notice when clicking on the pages in the list of [[Back Link|BackLink]]s.

Note that the [[Back Link|BackLink]]s also list the [[Home Page|HomePage]], which should however not be deleted :-). There has to be a page linking here, otherwise the only way to find it is through the[[Back Link|BackLink]]s.

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

'''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. Second, the old mechanism only applied ot pages, that started with the word [[Deleted Page|DeletedPage]]. --[[User:DonRedman|DonRedman]]
