Thanks Anselm, that’s a good idea

***Hello Ian/Chris/Talis people! How does one transfer votes from one topic to another? Can you fix this for me?!***

My idea is : “Accidental deletion of list or part of list” ; Anselm/QMU’s is “Delete warning”

Hello Phil,

 

I formulated an idea last September as we had a similar problem - in fact, no body knew who it was who made the deletion! - it's called "Delete Warning" and already has 6 votes.  Perhaps you could consolidate your idea with this one.

 

It seems a little strange to me that you can delete bits and pieces from active lists but you can't delete a test list or a list for a withdrawn module!

 

Best regards, Anselm

If your list has sections it is far too easy to remove a whole section and all the items within it. In Edit view, the section has Edit and Remove buttons next to each other (as shown in attachment). Click on Remove instead of Edit – easily done – and the whole section is gone, contents and all, and there is no way to undo this action. The only solution if you don’t have the items stored in your Bookmarks is to NOT publish it, go to the published version, make a copy and start over with the new list – lots of hassle. 

I have put this problem on Talis Ideas but it hasn't exactly caught fire (one vote so far!). If you want Talis to do something about it please vote now! It comes under the heading "Accidental deletion of list or part of list".

In the interim, has anyone got a workaround, or a tip for us to use, to avoid this happening?
