FAQ
Why can't I see the "Delete" action in the "More Action Menu"?
You can delete a Page if you have the delete right. The delete right can be either specifically given by an administrator, or it can be implied by other rights. For example, as shown in the table, admins automatically have delete rights, and the creator of a Page also automatically has delete rights for that Page. In these cases, you can see additional menu actions.
Why do I see a “job waiting” message when deleting a Page?
This happens when another job is running on the same Page. Page Tree Operation Locks prevent multiple long-running operations from being executed on the same Pages simultaneously. You’ll see a message box:
The deletion will resume automatically once the other job finishes or is cancelled. Don’t close the Page, as you may be asked additional questions during the deletion process.
Can I close the window while a delete is performed?
The delete is an interactive operation, and input from you might be requested during this operation. Don't close the window as you might miss some question/confirmation dialog.
Can I delete more Pages at once?
You can delete a current Page along with its children Pages if you select the "Affected children" checkbox from the deletion wizard.
