Or at least make so only one or 2 profiles ( of the owners for example ) have this "ability"?

Because it's a huge risk to have so many profiles that could do that, since such accidents might happen.

Imagine if the Sabi Sands thread gets deleted? Or the Kruger one, Mapogo, Majingilane, etc, it'd remove the bulky of history of these lions from the entire internet and we'd probably never be able to assemble all the data again, or have all the "historical" discussions and debates that happened throughout the years.

Wildfact currently, to my knowleadge, is the only place online where you can find all the history of these lions and all the ranger reports, every special lion behavior ever witnessed in decades since following lion dynamics became a thing.

Giving this responsibility to only couples of profiles, will make it harder  to run spam free site. Believe me, thousands of profiles have been created just to spam on wildfact (and this is normal to any forum site) since its birth. Many eyes with capabilities helps us to keep the site spam free as much as possible.

But your point is correct, we have valuable information and we need to address this issue. I will work on bringing the restore capabilities back. Reply
