Reasons for deletion

A page may need to be deleted for any one of the following reasons:

  • It is a duplicate of another page due to no to slight variation in the title. In this case, the content of the two should be merged and one deleted.
  • The article is not about Pikmin or Pikipedia.
  • The article is no longer needed (applies particularly to depreciated templates and categories).
  • It is too in-depth, so much so that it can only contain a short paragraph about the topic.
  • All information is represented on other pages. There are certain exceptions where repetition of the content may be useful, such as Easter eggs.
