Deleting records

Only you and administrators have the right to delete your records.

To delete a record:

• go to your own data (Menu > Explore > All my observations, wiki section Web interface > Browsing records > As a registered user > From explore tab > All my sightings).
  

• click on the icon next to the observation to delete: a bin to delete a single record (1 on image below), a bin with a pen to delete a full list (2 on image below).
  

• confirm before deleting the entry: select confirm to delete the entry, or cancel to keep it.
  

Bin to delete data in "All my observations"

You have also a bin when you consult the detail of a data and can delete it from here:

Bin in sightings details

Note depending the local portal you are using, the bin may be deactivated if the data has been already exported. When it is the case, the bin does not appear and the editing symbol is in red (3 on image Bin to delete data in "All my observations").

To delete such data you need to contact your local portal administrator.

See wiki section Editing records for more details about editing data.
