To list a page for deletion add the code

{{delete|your reason goes here}}

to the page. To see the list of pages currently up for deletion see Category:To be deleted. If there is any dispute please discuss on the talk page here.

A page may need to be deleted for any one of the following reasons (note: user pages are generally exempt from these standards):

  • It is a duplicate of another article due to a slight variation in title. In this case, the content of the two should be merged and one deleted.
  • The article is not about Pikmin or the Pikipedia.
  • The article is no longer required (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 content may be useful, such as Pikmin School and Pikmin Specials.

See Pikmin:File deletion policy for information on the deletion policy for media.

If there is any dispute about pages marked for deletion, please discuss it on the forums or contact an administrator. A list of administrators can be found here.
