Pathways can be deleted from WikiPathways using two mechanisms: If you are the sole author for a pathway, you have the authority to delete it directly. For pathways that you did not author yourself, or for which you have shared authorship, you may recommend the pathway for deletion using the Deletion Curation Tag. Pathways tagged for deletion will be reviewed periodically and removed.
Deleting a pathway you authored
On the Pathway Page, click the Delete tab at the top of the page. You will be asked to confirm the delete.
Recommending a pathway for deletion
On the Pathway Page, click the New tag icon in the Curation Tags section. Select "Proposed deletion" from the drop-down menu and enter a reason for deletion in the Tag text box.
