“ Policy: Criteria for deletion Consensus If you suspect that a work is a copyright violation, you can place it on Wikisource:Copyright discussions. If you believe that an article does not belong on Wikisource, but it doesn't match any of the criteria for speedy deletion below, you can list it at Wikisource:Proposed deletions. ”

“ Content which is a clear and proven copyright violation, or content previously deleted as a copyright violation, or author pages for authors whose works are all copyrighted. Author's request: Deletion per request of the author, if the author is the only significant contributor, the request is not in bad faith, and the content is not to the benefit of Wikisource. If the author blanks the page, this may be taken as a request. Person-based categories: Categories where the defining characteristic is person-based. ”

“ These criteria may be used by administrators to quickly close proposed deletions, although they cannot be used to delete a page before such a discussion begins. Such deletions are visible in the Proposed deletions archives and are easily reviewed or challenged. See "Precedent deletion criteria" for discussion.
