Help!
Gearzein, how do you delete pages? Some people are creating random pages that have absolutely nothing to do with Terraria. Example: Stan Lee. Please tell me how. LordofEditing (talk) 19:59, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Only sysops have the ability to delete pages. People vandalize wikis all the time, and there are plenty of users who do sweeps for it and get rid of it. The Stan Lee page was taken care of days ago by another admin, and I personally do a check for nonsense pages once a day if I can. If you'd like, you can add a delete template to these pages to flag them- this is recommended over commenting on a talk page, because that too must also be deleted. That said, there's so many other means of weeding them out that you can realistically just wait and they'll disappear before long. Gearzein (talk) 20:57, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
 * You were still asking about this, so I'm presuming you didn't see this answer. I'm copypasting it here from my own talk page. Traditionally, replies occur in chains on the talk page they started on, so this has been on my talk page for a few days now. Further, you've been asking this on our personal userpages, not talk pages. Please be more careful in the future. Gearzein (talk) 02:38, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Undo
I have to wonder if you've noticed that in a couple of your recent reverts to my edits, you've actually been re-adding garbage text that I was removing. Please pay closer attention to what you're actually doing to a page in the future, as there seems to be a somewhat consistent disconnect between your edit summaries and the actual changes made to the page. Occasional mistakes are understandable, and technically it's not vandalism, but consistent carelessness or misunderstanding to the same effect is indistinguishable to readers and just as detrimental to the wiki. If you continue to demonstrate the inability to appropriately use the editing tools, then your use of them will unfortunately have to be revoked. Gearzein (talk) 17:38, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for notifying me about that. Also, do you know how to patrol pages?
 * Only admins can patrol pages. It's meant to essentially flag an edit as verified, indicating that it's been checked and requires no further attention. Considering that I've just recently reprimanded you for inattentiveness in checking the content of edits and had to clean up after you as a result, it's not a function that you should concern yourself with for the time being. Honestly, you should focus more on not leaving mediawiki editor templates in places where your cursor strays than any higher-level reporting functions like deletion or reporting.
