The DeleteBatch extension adds a special page, Special:DeleteBatch, where users with the 'deletebatch' right can delete multiple pages easily. The user can delete pages either through the form or by uploading a text file containing the names (and optional delete reasons) of the deletable pages.
The syntax is:
- page name|Reason for deletion
So if you wanted to delete the page called "Test" with the reason "no longer needed", you'd type:
Test|no longer needed
in the form on Special:DeleteBatch. This extension was based off on the maintenance script with the same name.
Installation[edit]
- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
DeleteBatchin yourextensions/folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php:
require_once "$IP/extensions/DeleteBatch/DeleteBatch.php";
- Configure as required
Done - Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Configuration[edit]
By default, this extension lets only bureaucrats delete batches. You can change it to, e.g., let sysops delete batches:
$wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['deletebatch'] = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['deletebatch'] = true;
