Deletions

Whenever it comes to pages such as Arwingpedia:re-block or Arwingpedia:SpellStone Seal, should those just be deleted without going through proper channels? They seem like pretty useless pages to me. Also, I mentioned this on another page, does anyone think that pages such as Arwingpedia: Barrier Sphere should be moved to an Items in Star Fox: Assault type page? I don't think such items would get much info. --TW 07:22, 30 October 2010 (PDT)

No, deleting, or rather, merging, the pages are fine. Would you mind setting up proper redirects once the information is moved to a more "proper" page? [Tacopill|(talk)] 13:52, 30 October 2010 (PDT).

I'm thinking that SpellStone Seal could be featured on the eventual SpellStone page, but Re-Block is just a page on a completely trivial piece of technology. I'm not sure if it could even be featured on the Beltino Orbital Gate page. There's a similar comment on the Re-Block talk page.--TW 15:11, 30 October 2010 (PDT)

Yeap. I think that's fine. And Thanks for helping. [Tacopill|(talk)] 15:19, 30 October 2010 (PDT).

Okay then. I'd have helped sooner, but I've been busy since the last week. So delete both and make a note of SpellStone Seals on the eventual SpellStone page, right?--TW 15:25, 30 October 2010 (PDT)

It's not a problem. But please don't delete the page until all the useful content has been moved off, not before. [Tacopill|(talk)] 15:47, 30 October 2010 (PDT).

What's Left?

Does anyone know what's really left to move from Arwingpedia? Most of the pages I'm looking at seem a little weak. Take Vulcain for example. I know there's the most wanted pages, but that's mostly filled with templates.--TW 18:13, 22 December 2010 (PST)

Actually, i don't Know any more. I was driving myself nuts back in October, trying to grab every file and every version of every page i could. So, at some point, i broke it off, and stopped Importing. I have now just looked at their recent changes, and they have been getting busy these past few weeks. So, i honestly don't know what to do.

Keep in mind. No one can "close" a wikia, except Wikia itself. And the versions we have are either modified or 2 months old; so if i were to start importing agian, it would be a giant mess.

So, what i would say, is: no more pages or files are coming over. if what remains is not usable in anyway, shape or form, delete it.

Does this answer your questions? [Tacopill|(talk)] 18:51, 22 December 2010 (PST).

Also, is this Falco page is one of those pages? 18:49, 26 December 2010 (PST).

Mass Delete

Quick question, does anyone know if there is a mass delete feature? It might take a long time to delete these one by one. --TW 09:03, 30 January 2011 (PST)

Yep. I have just installed this tool to help out with just that. Does this mean we are now in stage 3 of the merger? [Tacopill|(talk)] 14:00, 30 January 2011 (PST).

Thanks. I'd say it's more like stage 2.5. We're thinning down the Arwingpedia pages, but still looking to see if there is a good page here or there. As opposed to stage three, which is just deleting everything. EDIT: I just tried it and it seems to be exclusive to bureaucrats.--TW 05:16, 6 February 2011 (PST)

Ok, i am at a crossroads. Before you are able to do so, there is something i would like to ask you in private. Please email me when you get a chance. [Tacopill|(talk)] 16:44, 6 February 2011 (PST).

Would you mind telling how to delete multiple pages. The page doesn't quite explain that. I tried inserting the | sign, but it only deletes the last page.--TW 13:28, 13 February 2011 (PST)
