XadrikXu (talk) 01:20, 2 November 2015 (UTC) Please Remove my account from Wikipedia. I do not want to be in any way associated with any facet of Wikipedia now or at any time in the future. Paul Andrew Hazel (Xadrik Xadrik-Xu Xadrik XuXadrikXu (talk) 01:20, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

@XadrikXu: Because Wikipedia content is licensed under the GFDL and the CC-BY-SA, all edits must be kept for attribution purposes, and so your account cannot be deleted. You do, however, have the right to vanish, which you can exercise by (1) requesting your user page (found at Special:Mypage) and subpages be deleted, by adding the {{db-userreq}} template to them; (2) requesting to change your username to something that is unconnected with you (possibly a random collection of letters and numbers); (3) never logging in to your account again. The "right to vanish" does not mean anyone has the right to a fresh start under a new identity. Anyone who wants to continue editing should request a change of username instead so edits can be reattributed. Please also note that I am not an administrator. --  Kethrus |talk to me  10:31, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
