Help me!

Please help me with...I'm new to this and just want to delete all the things I've done so far, as they are all messed but don't see to be able to find a way to do that? Can you help me?

If you want to delete a page you created, you can copy the following text to the page including the brackets: {{db-author}} This will tag the page for deletion, which only an administrator can do. 331dot (talk) 02:30, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]


So so I put that tag in the line of the current top version of the page/article or do I put it in each one, or the first one? Sorry for all the questions.

Yes, you put it on the current version of your page that you want deleted. If you post a link to one of your pages that you would like to delete, I can do one for you as an example. 331dot (talk) 02:44, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well I went in and tagged it in all of the pages and revisions I have does thus far. I hope that works and an admin will come along and delete them eventually. I just kept my user page. I had intended to sandbox my article until it was ready for submission, but think I messed that up and would prefer to just start over. Thanks for your help and let me know if there is anything else I need to do on my end.

I wish you luck in your time on Wikipedia.
