Template:Vanish

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Fuhghettaboutit (talk | contribs) at 23:24, 10 July 2007 (Alphabetize templates). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Due to the fact that Wikipedia content is licensed under the GFDL, all edits must be kept for attribution purposes, and so your account cannot be deleted. You do, however, have the right to vanish, which you can exercise by (1) requesting your user page (found at Special:Mypage) and/or user talk page (found at Special:Mytalk) be deleted, by adding the {{db-userreq}} template to them; (2) requesting to change your username to something that is unconnected with you (possibly a random collection of letters and numbers); (3) never logging in to your account again. If you do this, you are still free to register a new username if you wish to continue editing Wikipedia.

Usage

  • You must subst this template by typing {{subst:Vanish|user}} instead of {{Vanish|user}}.
  • The resulting text includes no indents, so do not forget to insert a colon (:) before transcluding the template: :{{subst:Vanish}} and not just {{subst:Vanish}}.
  • The resulting text also does not include a signature, so sign your message as normal using the four tildes.
