## Deleting a Knowledge Rating 

{% hint style="warning" %}

## Caution

You cannot reverse this procedure. If you delete a Knowledge Rating by mistake, you cannot restore it and have to re-create it.

However, this may cause the appearance of duplicated data in reports if knowledge entries in your system are linked to both the deleted value and active value.
{% endhint %}

You can delete a knowledge rating if you feel it is redundant or misleading. The original rating remains on existing articles but when adding a new rating the deleted value won’t be available.

1. Select the Menu button ![](https://alemba.help/help/10.0/content/resources/images/menu%20button.png), then **Admin**, and then select **System Administration**. The System Administration window is displayed, with a menu of options available.

4. Select the rating you want to delete.
