-The current implementation of %WIKITOOLNAME% is designed to never forget, that means all topic changes are under revision control and you can't delete or rename topics.

-Nevertheless there are cases where you wish to delete topics. %WIKITOOLNAME% requires administrative stuff like that to be done on the shell level, so please ask your %WIKITOOLNAME% administrator to do that for you. A future version will allow administrators to do that on the browser level.

-- Go to the topic you want to rename / delete.
-- Find out the back-links to this page from _Ref-By_ . Modify other topics if needed.
-- Telnet to the %WIKITOOLNAME% installation.
-- cd to <code>**twiki/data**</code> and then to the web where the topic is located. Rename / delete the topic ( <code>**name.txt**</code> ) and repository file ( <code>**name.txt,v**</code> ). **_Hint:_** Instead of deleting a topic you could create a <code>**Trash**</code> web and move topics/repositories to this web. (A future version of TWiki might have a Trash web.)
-- Edit the <code>**.changes**</code> file and rename / delete all occurrences of the topic. **_Note:_** There might be several lines of the topic.
-- cd to <code>**twiki/pub**</code> and then to the web where the topic is located. Rename / delete the topic attachment directory if present.
+The current implementation of %WIKITOOLNAME% is designed to never forget. So you can't delete a topic, however you can move or rename a topic and the original information is saved in topic meta data. If you want an even stronger memory, you can disable renaming on some or all topics; see [[TWikiAccessControl]].
