Removed text is not permanently lost, and can easily be restored from the page history. This page explains how to ask for an article to be deleted from Wikipedia. For all the gritty details, see the deletion policy. Bear the following things in mind: It is better to improve an article than to delete it for not being good enough.
Batch-delete: Click on the "D-batch" link to activate Twinkle's batch delete feature, allowing you to delete multiple pages at once. The module loads all links on the current page and lets you select which ones to delete, along with options to also delete their talk pages, redirects to those pages, and removing links to those pages.
If the page is in your own user space (i.e. starts with "User:YourName/"), then you can request immediate deletion of the page at any time. Simply edit the page and put the template {{db-u1}} at the top of the page. An administrator will see that the page is in your own user space and delete it.
Articles are discussed at Articles for deletion; other pages elsewhere go through different processes (see deletion discussion for a complete list). Such discussions normally last seven days, after which an administrator will delete the page if there is a consensus to do so. Anyone may participate in such a discussion, however they are not "votes".

A Wikipedian prepares to do some cutting. Content removal is the removal of material that provides information from an article, without deleting the article itself. While an entire page can be deleted only via the deletion process (ultimately completed by an administrator), even a single unregistered editor can boldly remove part of a page.
