Unused File Wipe

[Echo 7-7]

Maybe you should check with one of the Wiki Admins before you do that.

Leave wiki, it's fine as it is, and it's working.

There is simply no need to delete files just because they are unused. It's not like they're taking up space needed for something else.

There was a sig here, once.

Sorry, but what part of 'Cut that out' did you not understand from the last ten posters?

I understood what they wrote.

But I don't really care much about it.

So, you're essentially gonna go change and erase stuff other people have put up on the wiki without their permission, and without care for what they think of it.

There's a word for that.

Vandalism.

I don't need permission from people who uploaded and does not use those files anymore.

I talked with Blodo, who had no objections for marking old and unused files for deletion.

Yes, please remove unused old files. The forum is somewhat short of disk space and it is a pain to increase it. The recent failures were in part related to running out of disk space.

That is not a legitimate reason to not edit the wiki.

Tell me there are backups...

MediaWiki saves each revision until pages at least get deleted by a sysop/beaurocrat. I'm not sure what happens when they do that.

So, you're essentially gonna go change and erase stuff other people have put up on the wiki without their permission, and without care for what they think of it.

Arthur S3 doesn't have the ability to erase stuff from the wiki. He does not need permission from the author of a page to change it.

There's a word for that.

Vandalism.

No, it's not vandalism.

@Arthur S3: Please wait until the Special:RecentChanges page is fixed.

Wait, seriously?


In that case, I'm gonna have to change my position.
I'll agree that stuff will need to be deleted. What I don't agree with is being heavy-handed about it.
