#2881 Request for wiki administrator access (or delete access)
Closed: Fixed None Opened 12 years ago by duffy.

= phenomenon =

I don't have wiki administrator privileges. I would like to delete files on the wiki that I know should not be there. For example, older versions of the Fedora logo, or versions of the logo that don't follow the guidelines, or SVGs that contain vector logo content that should not be made publicly available.

Every now and then I find these and would like to delete them. I don't need administrator access if there is some other way to grant my user account deletion access.

Another reason delete access would be very convenient for me is that I upload a lot of graphical content to the wiki, and sometimes when you're uploading a series of say 20 or so files you make a typo in the name of the file :) However, I don't seem to have permission to move the file to the correct name, so the only solution is to upload it again under the correct name. This leaves duplicate content taking up disk space on the wiki and I'd really appreciate the ability to clean it up in situ.

Here's an example of the issue. Gave me a different, equally insane error message for not working :)

Done. You should be in the 'pruners' group now and be able to delete things.

Please let us know if you run into any issues with it.
