Is there any way we could add a way to delete clearances from the clearance page? I have six clearances on my clearance page I'd like to kill; common reasons were I couldn't get suitable scans from my source or I ceeded it to some other volunteer with their own copy. Besides cluttering up my already cluttered clearance page, it makes some projects look more live than they are.

Yes, I agree this would be nice. In case there is confusion, what is under discussion is the copyright clearance system as used at: http://copy.pglaf.org/ Looking through my list of items with status "Cleared", I see that I have three clearances which were submitted manually to a white-washer; one which was a small volume of poems which was combined with another similar volume for posting to PG; and two which are duplicates of items already in PG that I didn't check closely enough. I see that there is a "Cancelled" status, which could be suitable for some of these. However, there does not seem to be a way to use it. Andrew On Mon, 19 Jun 2006, David Starner wrote:

I've got a few that were posted to PG--Widger particularly seems to directly post when PPVing. Those would be better transfered to status Submitted, I would think; they need to stick around in some form. If they aren't getting moved to Submitted, how are they linked to the books behind the scenes?

It would also be handy to be able to keep alive a clearance for which a book has been posted, and more will follow. This is mainly for multi-volume works that are submitted one at a time. Carlo
