To delete all pages created by a particular user, use Special:Nuke.For other mass-deletion needs, use Twinkle's "D-batch" module (see tools).Remember that even if performing a batch deletion the burden is still on you to make sure all of the pages you are deleting in fact meet the criterion you use to delete them.
If this fails to resolve the issue, you may be able to request review of the closure at Wikipedia:Deletion review. If a page was obviously deleted "out of process" (per this policy), an administrator may choose to undelete it immediately. In such a case, the administrator who deleted the page should be informed.
Anyone can disagree with your request for any reason; all they have to do is remove the tag. If the tag stays there for seven days, an administrator will check the article and delete it if they agree with your reason.

You need to be an administrator to delete pages. Any user can remove text, but another user usually reverts the edit within a matter of minutes. If someone begins an extensive attack, they will be blocked from further editing by admins.
Note if a request was recently declined for a given user/permission, a bot will comment with a link to that discussion. You may wish to ping the administrator who declined the previous request asking for their input before responding to the new request. To grant the permission: Grant the user right(s) to the user at Special:UserRights.
