Help:Deletion
Some articles or images may be candidates for deletion if they do not meet Wiki standards or conform to wiki guidelines. Content may be deleted if it is vulgar or offensive, unrelated to Steam applications and their development, or meets other criteria for deletion.
Criteria for Deletion
These are guidelines for articles that should be deleted. This list is not comprehensive and common sense should be used.
- Any images that don't meet the Image use policy.
- Articles which do not cover any aspect of development or any relevant games or mods. An article about someone's school or a random video game would fall into this category.
- Articles which have been created for the sake of vandalism.
- Articles created to attack individuals, games, or companies.
- An article about a mod you are thinking about making but don't have a team or any content for.
- Anything offensive or vulgar in nature.

 |

An administrator will review the content and determine if it should be deleted.
