The '''deletion of content''' from the TARDIS Index File, the Doctor Who Wiki can happen if this content falls foul of [[Tardis:policies|our policies]].  Deletion removes the content — and all previous versions of the content — from public view. The actual deletion can only be performed by an administrator. However, any user may nominate a piece of content such as an article or an image for deletion by using the [[Template:Proposed deletion|<nowiki>{{proposed deletion}}</nowiki>]] — or [[Template:delete|<nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki>]] — template.
