Delete facebook page
You may create a facebook page and later lose interest in the page and wonder how to delete it? You’re not alone.
A facebook page is different from profile, though. Your user profile represents you as an individual where you can interact with friends and maintain control over the privacy of the information you share. A page is a public representation of a person, place, organization, group, or something else anyone on Facebook can like to follow its posts.
Follow these steps to learn how to remove a Facebook page and wait for it to be permanently deleted.

Make Sure You’re an Admin of the Page You Want to Delete

Only users assigned the role of admin can delete Facebook pages. If you’re the one who created the page, you’re already the admin by default. However, if you were not the one who created the page, you must have received permission from another admin of the page to become an admin yourself.
To find out if you’re an admin of a Facebook page on a computer:
  1. 1. Go to Facebook.com.
  2. 2. Select Pages in the left menu, then select the page from the list.
  3. 3. Select Settings at the top, then select Page Roles in the left menu.

If you’re using the Facebook mobile app for iOS or Android:
  1. 1. Open the app and tap the menu icon at the bottom to the far right.
  2. 2. Tap Pages.
  3. 3. Select your page, then tap Edit Page> Settings > Page Roles.
  4. 4. Scroll down to see the existing page roles. If you’re an admin, you should see your profile picture and name listed along with an Admin label.
As an admin of the page, you can continue with the deletion process by following the next steps.

Access the Facebook Page Settings

If you followed the first step to find out if you’re an admin, you may already be in your Page’s settings and can probably skip this step. But if you’re not already there, selectSettings at the top of your page on Facebook.com or tap Edit Page > Settingson the mobile app.
