Where did my page go?

It is highly likely that the Moderators decided the page just didn't contain any worthwhile content, and rather than attempt a tidy-up the page was deleted. If you are going to start a new page ensure you have something useful to say! It doesn't have to be a mini-novel right away but that first edit has to have something more than a couple of in-jokes, or stating that someone loves/hates someone else. Any swearing or insults result in instant deletion and likely a warning for whoever made the page.

If a page that you created has been deleted, firstly please check in Recent Changes to see if a moderator has written why. "No worthwhile content" is pretty self-explanatory!

If not, the second step should be to check the Editing Guidelines to see if you fell foul of the rules.

Finally, if you are still unsure, or feel hard-done-to by having your work removed, comment in the Community Portal or Moderation Requests and a moderator will get back to you.
