= Deleting content =
Deleting pages is a function that is restricted to GCpedia [[sysop|system operators]] (sysop). However, users can "flag" a page for deletion by adding special template code {{tl|delete}} at the top of the page that notifies the sysop that the page should be deleted.
You can contact also GCpedia administrators via email [mailto:admin.GCPEDIA@tbs-sct.gc.ca admin.GCpedia@tbs-sct.gc.ca] at any time to ask them to take a page or file down, as long as you provide a rationale.
== Code to Insert ==
Put the text <code><nowiki>{{Delete|reason=Your reason for requesting a page deletion.}}</nowiki></code> at the top of a page or category that you think should be deleted, and an administrator will process the request. Justification, see the [[#Common reasons for deletion|common list of reasons]] below, is defined within the template with the code "reason=…", or on the talk page.
i.e.:
<nowiki>{{Delete|reason=Page was for planning purposes only.}}</nowiki>
gives:
{{ambox
| type = delete
| image = [[Image:subjectToDeletion.jpg|30px|Subject to deletion]]
| text = This page has been highlighted as a candidate for deletion. Please see [[{{TALKPAGENAMEE}}|the discussion]]. {{#if:|Reason: {{{reason}}}|{{#if:Page was for planning purposes only|Reason: Page was for planning purposes only}}}}
}}
