* '''Private personally identifiable information''' posted without consent, including links and directions to websites and other sources that publish private information without consent. Certainty is not required; if there is a reasonable possibility that the content is private information, it should be suppressed.

** Personally identifiable information includes, but is not limited to: physical addresses or locations, names, phone numbers, email addresses, or any other information linked to real-world identity.

** Even if an editor has released personal information on another public website, it is still subject to suppression unless an editor has also posted the information on ~~{{SITENAME}}~~.

** Even if an editor has released personal information on another public website, it is still subject to suppression unless an editor has also posted the information on WickedGov.

** This criterion includes IP addresses inadvertently revealed by editing while logged out.

** This criterion includes any non-public personal information published about minors, even if the minor deliberately posted it themselves.

* '''Unlawful content''', (copyright infringements excepted) or links to websites distributing it.

* '''Copyright infringement''' in exceptional cases, such as when the office has received a DMCA complaint. Suppression under this criterion should only be done after request of staff. In most cases, [[Project:revision deletion|revision deletion]] is acceptable and sufficient.

* '''Obviously defamatory content''' when severe ~~and obvious~~. In less severe cases, [[Project:revision deletion|revision deletion]] or simple [[Help:reverting|reverting]] may be sufficient.

* '''Obviously defamatory content''' when severe enough to warrant exceptional action. In less severe cases, [[Project:revision deletion|revision deletion]] or simple [[Help:reverting|reverting]] may be sufficient.

* ~~Cases where~~ the ~~content would normally be~~ [[WickedGov:~~Deletion~~ policy|~~deleted~~]]~~, but~~ technical restrictions do not allow for normal deletion~~. Administrators should contact suppressors to request suppression in accordance with community deletion policy~~.

* '''Valid deletions''' under the [[WickedGov:deletion policy|deletion policy]] where technical restrictions do not allow for normal deletion.

* ~~When,~~ in the judgement of the ~~{{SITENAME}}~~ office, ~~suppression is legally required~~.

* '''Legally required suppressions''' in the judgement of the WickedGov office.

* '''Grossly offensive usernames''' when they do not meet any other criterion but there is no compelling reason to keep the username. This includes attack usernames: usernames that contain derogatory, false, or misleading statements about another person, organization, or group.
