I had a look around, but I couldn't find anything on it. Is it possible to rename an existing article? For that matter, is it possible to delete an article?

Thanks in advance!

I also want to rename an article I wrote. Also haven't figured out how to do it.....

To delete one, simply delete everything in the body. Maybe to change the title, cut(copy) the content, then start a new article with desired title.

I'd suggest you pm a mod if you can't change the name yourself.

So there's no easy way to rename an article without bothering a mod? Curses.

Oh well. Defunct article ahoy...

A MOD wouldn't consider it 'bothering.' They are there to help in these exact situations. I'm sure they'd be much more annoyed about duplicate or useless articles that then have to be cleaned up.

Heh, truth. I'd just prefer some way to do it myself, so I don't have to go to a mod every time I change my mind.

Haha, yeh fair enough. Maybe it's something Lego is adding for the big update.

Leaving deleted/blank articles in place is really annoying, so please contact a mod if you want one removed instead of cleaning it yourself. Most of the time if you delete the content, we'll undo the delete and bring the article back as we presume it is abuse. Deleting a whole article without explanation might get you banned from the article system too.

If it is just your user article User:yourname, then it is not an issue and you can just delete the content.

Honestly, I just want to rename it. If I can rename it then I don't need to delete it, heh.

PM me and I'll be sure to...service you.

I'm not sure how to feel about being... serviced. PM sent, and thank you!

Don't freak out if I don't reply. Leaving the messages blinking
reminds me to check later.

No worries, I'm not in any particular hurry. Thanks again for your help!
