Welcome to YWS

You can't delete works, but you can go to the Publishing Center, click on said work you want to delete, and unpublish it. By doing that, it is made so that you would be the only one able to see the work. Wa-la!

As for the folders, I believe they're not able to be deleted.

Can the admin permanently delete them? They keep popping up on Google when I search the names, but I need them gone.

In that case, it's popping up because Google has it indexed. Clicking on the link, though, should not lead to a page with your actual work on it.

You really must hate that title and work.

Yeah...Something like that. I just need it gone. Someone please help me. I've already contacted Nate about it, but I don't know when he'll get back to me. Why did Google index it? :'( lol

Gonna move this to Questions and Answers. :)

Nate should get back to you when he can! Just give him a bit, he's a busy guy.

We do not delete works from the site, as it messes with the database.

You can always edit the title of your work to something like "deleted". In your portfolio, I currently see only one empty folder titled "Deleted". I don't know what shows up on Google, but whoever would be searching for your work won't be able to see it.

You can, however, delete empty folders.
Go to the Settings tab (gear icon)
Click on "Profile", then "Edit Portfolio"
Here, you can see your folders and what's in them.
Click on the folder you want to delete, then if it's empty, you can delete it.

Or you can leave it until you have something else to post, then edit it. That's what I would do. :P

I'm not sure why you want them gone so urgently, but I don't think you need to do any more than you've already done to remove the works.
