Removing a style from the repository
Hi
I'm a librarian at University College Lillebælt (UCL) in Denmark, and I'm responsible for making and maintaining csl-files that correspond with the institution's official guidelines for students.
I've made two versions of UCL's Vancouver-style, one in English and one in Danish. However, in the latest update of our guidelines, it was decided that the Vancouver-style should be used exclusively in English. So I want to remove the "University College Lillebælt - Vancouver (Danish)" from the Style Repository, so as not to confuse the students unnecessarily.
I can't see any way to delete a style from the repository. Alternatively, I could rename the style to remove the UCL affiliation, but that would require that I change the id too, so I guess that it wouldn't work.

For our repository, we always try to set up a replacement style for any style that we delete. This allows programs like Zotero to automatically update to that style, so that e.g. existing word processor documents don't start complaining about missing styles. In this case, we can do the following: convert the English version to a full independent style, and remove the Danish version and set up a pointer from the Danish version to the English one.
If you can take a quick look and let me know if it looks okay, I'll merge it.
