| == Guidelines ==
| |
| In general, the guidelines for deletion are far less strict than those of Wikipedia (https://www.wikipedia.org), for example.
| |
|
| |
| The following types of articles should be deleted without question:
| |
| *Blatant vandalism.
| |
| *Test pages.
| |
| *Unnecessary redirects.
| |
| *Talk pages of deleted articles.
| |
| *Advertisements
| |
| *Subjects that do not belong in the Wiki (as determined by AoPSWiki admins)
| |
| *Non-notable subjects (such as an educational website, book, etc.) are generally not deleted if they contain a neutral, thorough coverage of the section and the topic of the article is suitable for AoPSWiki.
| |
|
| |
| Other solutions include:
| |
|
| |
| *Merging the article into a related article.
| |
| *Moving the article to a different [[Help:Namespaces|namespace]].
| |
| *Reducing the article to a stub.
