  • If a glossary is no longer needed or appropriate, you can delete it just as you would
  • delete a document
  • Deleting a glossary removes the glossary document from the Library, but does not delete the package files and web pages used as definition links unless you explicitly choose to delete related documents as well. The links created using the glossary are also not removed when the glossary is deleted. Therefore, if you delete the glossary with related documents, you break these links. Moreover, deleting a glossary does not remove the glossary from the documents to which it was assigned. Therefore, if you delete a glossary that is assigned to one or more documents, you break the glossary assignment links. You can use the
  • Broken Links tool
  • To avoid breaking links when you delete a glossary document, you should first ensure that it is not assigned to any documents. To do this, you can use the
  • Related Documents tool
  • toolpane
  • update glossary links
  • Multi-user Considerations
  • Documents under version control must be checked in and you must be working online to delete a document from the Library. You can delete new documents that have never been checked in (are not under version control) while working online or offline.
