3.7. Deleting Items

Up one level
Items may be deleted from a folder with ease.

Sometimes it is necessary to delete a content item, often to replace it with an updated version.  Or, you could simply delete an item, for a variety of reasons.  In the example of the swallowtail butterfly mistakenly added to the Skippers folder, instead of cutting it and pasting it somewhere, it could simply be deleted:

In the example shown above, the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail folder is about to be deleted.

Entire folders may be deleted, so care must be taken with the delete operation, but this is true for computer use in general, and we all have learned to do a last minute self-check to make sure the delete operation is intended.
