YPPedia:Deletion

Any user can delete content by editing a page. The content will still be available in the page history. Administrators can delete articles so they are no longer viewable by non-admins. Before you delete anything, please note that it is often a mistake to delete content.

 * 1) If the page is a candidate for speedy deletion (CSD), add.
 * 2) If the page is not a CSD and the reason for deleting it is short, add   (replacing "reason" with the reason it should be deleted.
 * 3) If the page is not a CSD and needs a longer explanation for the proposed deletion, add   to the page and explain the reason on the talk page.

For non-speedy candidates, the pages should be kept for around a week before being deleted (assuming there is agreement that they should be deleted).
