Prevent a list from being deleted

Creating lists can allow you to have data just as you want it. Sometimes we create a list to store a message and then it's just there in case we need it. Other times we create lists that we use and then discard. What if you have a list you made that you don't want anyone removing? Protecting that list from deletion is a very simple task.

Step 1: Go into List Settings

Hover over the list you want to protect and click the List Settings icon
