<p>I created a script to batch delete locations, which you can see here:</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings everyone. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We just installed Archive Space at my institution this week, so I am brand new to the group, and unfortunately already in need of some basic assistance.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I just finished batch-creating “location records,” and now need to delete them all due to an error on my part. I have begun deleting them individually, but I batch-created so many, that just about any alternative to that task would be
more efficient.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Currently, the only thing I have done in AS is to create the repository, and manage the user access. Starting everything over from scratch would not be a problem. Do I have any alternatives to individually deleting or editing all of these
location records? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any advice is greatly appreciated.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
