Disowning / Disassociating[edit]
While this page talks about ownership, do we have content somewhere about what can be done when an editor wants to disown his article, considering he is the sole contributor. WP:G7 is one way to get the article deleted, but it may be undeleted by anyone on request, hence the "disowning" is only temporary. Is there a way for an editor to request this disassociation, or to ensure that his revisions are not undeleted? Jay (talk) 08:05, 29 April 2022 (UTC)
- No, although special circumstances could conceivably lead to an article being oversighted making it not possible for normal processes to undelete an article. See "By publishing changes, you agree to the Terms of Use, and you irrevocably agree to release your contribution under the CC BY-SA 3.0 License and the GFDL."

Illustration[edit]
Is this image too brutal for illustrating this article? :) Anyway, I'll leave it here. Feel free to use it for humorous purposes. JWBTH (talk) 01:53, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
Statements[edit]
Am i allowed to add extra examples in the statements section? Sangsangaplaz (talk) 13:48, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
- For policy pages like this, it is best to propose changes and get consensus for them first. Most substantive changes to policy pages are reverted. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 20:29, 23 November 2023 (UTC)
