<title>Deleting Custom Fields</title>
<para>
It is only possible to delete obsolete Custom Fields
if the field has never been used in the database.
To remove a field which already has content,
mark it as obsolete.
Only custom fields which are marked as obsolete, and which never
have been used, can be deleted completely (else the integrity
of the bug history would be compromised). For custom fields marked
as obsolete, a "Delete" link will appear in the <quote>Action</quote>
column. If the custom field has been used in the past, the deletion
will be rejected. But marking the field as obsolete is sufficient
to hide it from the user interface entirely.
