Removing unquestionable personal attacks from your own user talk page is much less of a concern than removing comments from other pages in the Guild Wars Wiki . For text elsewhere, where such text is directed against you, removal requests should be directed to an admin to determine if the comments should remain, be archived, or be deleted. However, deletion should be rare, limited to situations where the comments pose an ongoing threat to a user such as revealing personal information in the attack.


Removal of talk page content[edit]

  • Users may not remove comments (wholly or partially) from any talk page, with the following exceptions:
    • Removal of clear vandalism and spam.
      • Users should not remove what they consider "spam" from other users' user talk pages, but should let the posters know that it is inappropriate.
      • Users are allowed to remove "spam" from talk pages associated with their own user space, especially if a "warning" has been placed.
    • Removal of links to sites containing malicious scripts or patently offensive material.
    • Removal of email addresses (although any request to not remove them should be honored).
    • Removal of personal information posted without the person's consent.
    • Removal of material prohibited by policy in a manner as ascribed by policy, such as GWW:NPA and GWW:COPYRIGHT.
    • Removal for archiving purposes (see following section).
    • 1
    • Removal to a more appropriate talk page and marking the move using the {{moved}} template in both the source and destination pages.
  • If part of a post is removed, a replacement note detailing what was removed should be inserted (such as <personal attack removed> or <link to shock site removed>).
  • If a comment was removed in its entirety due to the above exceptions, there is no need to insert a replacement note, unless the removed comment had received a reply, in which case replacement notes such as <spam removed> or <vandalism removed> should be inserted.

Archive link[edit]

Please provide a link to your talk archive as policy requires. Thanks. -- Wyn User Wynthyst sig icon2.png talk 10:54, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Your link is still hardly what I would call visible. Help:Archiving has some useful tips. G R E E N E R 18:27, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
