In rarer circumstances old instructions are no longer relevant at all. Example: [https://ccmdb.kuality.ca/index.php?title=Oaks_ICU_Collection_Guide&action=edit&redlink=1 Oaks ICU Collection Guide ] - it didn't contain anything we need to know to interpret data in the future, so deleted. If it had included information about how we need to interpret Oaks data in the future we would have kept the page and just declared it legacy.

'''If you delete a page, you need to clean up all links to it.''' This is a good thing to do when setting things to Legacy as well, since otherwise pages may be linking to it as if something is still an active process (i.e. "what links here" is a good checklist to make sure the rest of the wiki is cleaned up when making a change).
