1. Article type used to create an article. However, you can always rename the types.

1. In the Navigation Menu, browse to Management > Article Types.

2. On the Article Types & Templates page, navigate to the article type you want to delete.

3. From the Actions column, click the Options  button.

4. From the dropdown menu, select the Delete option.

5. A message appears asking to confirm the deletion. Click Yes to delete the article type.
