	Deletion Information
		For example, file deletion is usually achieved by removing metadata structures (like inodes) describing the file from the file system, without destroying the contents of the file, which remain in the same physical location on the disk until it is overwritten by newer files.
		Sometimes information that appears deleted for one group of agents is not necessarily such for another; a good example is article deletion in wikis, which is usually a reversible process: "deleted" articles are simply hidden for the general public, but can still be viewed and restored ("undeleted") by administrators.
		Deletion is distinct from data loss; both cause removal of information, but deletion is a voluntary action, while data loss results in data becoming unreadable as a result of an error.

	WoWWiki:Policy/Three revert rule - WoWWiki

	UESPWiki:Deletion Policy - UESPWiki
		Speedy deletion is a deletion process that governs the deletion of articles and media that administrators can delete "on-sight" without further debate.
		Proposed deletion is a deletion process for the deletion of uncontroversial pages that do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion.
		Someone deleting the "proposed deletion" tag without explanation should be taken as an implicit indication that there is an objection to the deletion.

	Not Notable: Wikipedia's Arbitrary Deletion Policy
		There is no clear policy or even guideline that says why the article might be deleted, so this ultimately boils down to individual opinions.
		While administrators have a fair amount of discretion, deletion is largely a vote by established users.
		Of course, the group of people who vote on articles for deletion tend to be self-selecting; I believe they self select toward people who err on the side of deletion.

	Archaepedia:Criteria for speedy deletion - Archaepedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The "Speedy deletion" policy governs limited cases where Archaepedia administrators may delete Archaepedia pages or media "on sight" without further debate, as in the cases of patent nonsense or pure vandalism.
		Sometimes speedy deletion criteria are applied to articles that they do not and were not intended to apply to; also, rules that are not speedy deletion rules are often mistakenly used to justify speedy deletion.
		Before deleting a page, an admin should check the page history to assess whether it would instead be possible to restore and salvage a previous version.

	[No title]
		In an effort to help our customers avoid unintentional deletion of their domain names, we may, but are not obligated to, provide our customers with a “grace period” after their domain name expiration dates.
		Registry Operators may provide registrars with the ability to “redeem” a deleted domain name for a customer, and we, in turn, may (but are not obligated to) provide customers with an ability to redeem a particular domain name.
		In the event a domain name is the subject of a Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) proceeding and expires or is deleted during the course of the dispute, the complaining customer has the option to renew or restore the domain name under the same commercial terms as the original customer.

	SourceWatch:Policy on permanent deletion of pages - SourceWatch
		Deleted pages can be restored by administrators and developers, but if deletions are made too casually, it is easy to lose track.
		Hence, the decision to permanently delete an article is not to be taken lightly.
		Do not delete a page containing a personal essay or other content from the main article namespace without first posting a copy elsewhere (e.g., in a different namespace or on the meta), unless the content is simply vandalism.

	REQUEST FOR DELETION OF POLICY DOCUMENTS
		CD 200 and the associated Standard Operating Practices (SOP 200) are being deleted as they no longer reflect CSC's Policy Framework as approved in principle at the January 2002 Executive Committee meeting.
		The Policy Framework was revised to clarify accountabilities and include criteria to better distinguish policy from operational procedures.
		With the development of a new policy framework and process designed to reduce policy, a policy on policy would be self-defeating.

	World Bank Not to Seek Phasing Out of Units - Global Policy Forum - Social and Economic Policy
		"It was not our policy," remarked the WB chief when informed of the letter reported to have been written by a bank official based in Islamabad to Minister for Commerce and Industries, Abdul Razzak Dawood, to formulate a new industrial policy to phase out seven industries considered "internationally uncompetitive".
		Abid Hasan, a WB representative, is reported to have suggested that the government should formulate a new industrial policy which should curtail investment in industries contributing "negative value-added at world prices." In this context, he referred to such industries as steel, sugar, fertilizer and chemicals.
		A new fertilizer policy is anticipated by officials by the end of this month to facilitate privatization of two fertilizer factories in the public sector and encourage investment in new projects.

		It's the same principle by which users are encouraged not to delete comments on their own talk page just because they don't agree with them.

	Secure Data Deletion Standard
		Even though computer users may think that data or programs have been deleted by hitting the "delete key", there are often significant remnants remaining on the hard disk of the computer.
		Since it is possible that even systems not thought of as containing important information can have remnants from previous activity, it is recommended that all systems and media moving from one department or type of usage to another be securely wiped.
		In addition to the departmental staff who are responsible for non-public data on their electronic systems, staff involved in any transfers of equipment both within and particularly outside the University through sales, recycling, donations, etc. must be certain that University data and licensed software has been removed.

		It would be good if the deletion policy at least mentioned how to un-orphan an article/image that is kept, or if that can't be easily done then it may be best to change the policy.
		If desired I can stop deleting his empty contributions, but I really feel if someone is creating pages solely for the purpose of trolling that we really shouldn't treat their contributions any differently than someone whose contributions would normally be handled with the rollback button.

	GNSO \| Deletes Final Report
		Currently, a non-renewed name has to be affirmatively “deleted” (as opposed to lapsing on its own) because the registry automatically renews a domain name for another year on the date it is scheduled to expire (and bills the associated registrar the annual registry fee).
		During discussion of specific policy recommendations, various task force members raised the question of how these recommendations would be enforced. One of the greatest boons of these recommendations is that they provide greater consistency and transparency in the deletion process. If the recommendations are not uniformly and universally implemented, this consistency is undermined.
		Additionally, the policy recommendations are likely to require changes in the Registry Registrar Agreements and Registry Accreditation Agreement as they are implemented. However, the recommendations are expected to have low technical impact and cost, with a high level of acceptance.

		One of the goals of the Forum is to listen to what Parker Players are saying and address any issues that may arise.
		I just figured like most boards you guys delete those kind of topics, it usually strikes fear into those who are looking to purchase a parker or better yet they don't even own/play a Parker but their just here to bash.
