I don't know if there is already a system in place, but would it be worth adding a 'remove' grade to request, or denote that an article should be deleted? All articles with the grade would be visible on its 'Category' page, like with the others (Grade P, for example: http://micras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Grade_P). An admin checking this frequently can see which articles the community wishes to be deleted, and can decide from their.

:I've added a new "[[Template:Grade U|Ungraded]]" template which can now be used for such requests for articles. I'd warn against using it purely for pages with poor/limited content though; only things that ''need'' deleting should be got rid of - better a terrible article than none at all!

Add a removal grade?

I don't know if there is already a system in place, but would it be worth adding a 'remove' grade to request, or denote that an article should be deleted? All articles with the grade would be visible on its 'Category' page, like with the others (Grade P, for example: http://micras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Category:Grade_P). An admin checking this frequently can see which articles the community wishes to be deleted, and can decide from their. I know that as a standard user, I can't delete my own articles, so there are a lot of dead pages floating around. --Cairney (talk) 01:40, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

I've added a new "Ungraded" template which can now be used for such requests for articles. I'd warn against using it purely for pages with poor/limited content though; only things that need deleting should be got rid of - better a terrible article than none at all!
