Content removal requests fall into two categories: '''immediate removal''' (copyright violation or privacy concern) and '''discussed removal'''. The ability to remove content on the wiki is restricted to users with Administrator (page deletion) and/or Suppressor roles (deletion of revisions and logs).

Content removal requests fall into three categories:
 +
 
 +
#'''priority removal''': due to copyright violation or privacy concern
 +
#'''undiscussed removal''': non-urgent inappropriate content, e.g. spam
 +
#'''discussed removal''': potentially inappropriate content

Removal discussion is warranted when content is potentially "out of scope" for this wiki. After a request is made, other editors can edit the wiki to share their opinion (vote to remove/keep), their reasoning, and other related thoughts. Discussion may include refining or modifying the community's understanding regarding the wiki's appropriate "scope".
 +
 
 +
Decisions are expected to be rendered according to consensus, similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Consensus Wikipedia's use of consensus decision-making].

To initiate a discussion for content removal, please edit the wiki to add a request: [[PersonalScienceWiki:Removal Discussion Requests|Removal Discussion Requests]]
