Rightio, so we've recently started doing a big cleanup of all the current character pages, and it has dawned on me and probably a few of you, that even bigger than the characters category is the inactive characters category. I think it's more than double. I'm kind of afraid to check.

Anyway, basically I was thinking we could go back through and delete pages which had three or less RPs. Obviously we're not going to delete their RPs from the wiki and they'll still be there somewhere on the roleplaying board, but basically, if you had them for three RPs or less and then got bored of them I'm going to assume they probably weren't that important.

But what if I really want to keep my old character in case I want to read some old roleplays I wrote?

Well, how it works is like this. I'm pretty sure we have a delete tag. Basically, I'm gonna go around and mark old pages with three or less RPs as candidates for deletion. If you want to keep an old page because you're really attached to it, you can remove the template and post in the edit summary that you want the page to be kept.

No but my character had heaps of roleplays!!!

Don't worry. They're fine. Only characters with three or less roleplays will be deleted.

Does this include Lumblr Profiles?

Yes it does. If your character page gets deleted, their Lumblr Profile will get deleted along with them. If your page is a masterpiece like this (I bet you all forgot about that, huh?) and you want to keep it, just ask to keep the character page.

What if I want to keep my character page but not their lumblr network?

Well, if your character's disabled lumblr network doesn't manage to have a total of at least three statuses and/or blogs on it, I'm gonna delete it. If you want it deleted and it hasn't been, just mark the page with the delete tag and someone will find it.

'''Why are you doing this to me? It's not fair!'''

Basically I'm just cleaning up because we have a lot of pages that are not even second-glanced at and they bury the pages that we missed and care about. If you want to keep all of your old pages just get rid of the delete template. I'll leave them up for a week anyway.
