-<p>Execute a "soft delete" of the data package. Any data package owner can perform this operation using <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CURL" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">curl</a> or another HTTP-based application that can send a "DELETE" request. The delete method is described in the <a href="https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpasta.lternet.edu%2Fpackage%2Fdocs%2Fapi%23DELETE%2520%3A%2520%2Feml%2F%257Bscope%257D%2F%257Bidentifier%257D&amp;data=05%7C01%7Cjfutrelle%40whoi.edu%7C4786c822c02c43dedc0d08dabce50e7e%7Cd44c5cc6d18c46cc8abd4fdf5b6e5944%7C0%7C0%7C638029989235147987%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=ewGg%2BUuazIME6VLxGHE2hjVBXr51p8uVdXxRmSZeEE8%3D&amp;reserved=0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">API documentation</a>. Note that the entire series will be "soft deleted", so use only the data package scope and identifier in the DELETE request. For example the command</p>

Note that the entire series will be "soft deleted", so use only the data package scope and identifier in the DELETE request. To perform a "soft delete" using <code>cURL</code> you would need to set the "user" and "request method" parameters to identify the owner of the data package and the <code>DELETE</code> mehtod. The full <code>cURL</code> command would look like</p>
+<pre><code>curl --user &lt;USER&gt;:&lt;PASSWORD&gt; -X DELETE &lt;URL&gt;
 </code></pre>
-<p>will "soft delete" all data package revisions in the <strong>knb-lter-nes.7</strong> series.</p>
+<p>The PASTA API requires the "user" parameter to be the full EDI LDAP distinguished name (e.g., <code>uid=ecoridge,o=EDI,dc=edirepository,dc=org</code>), where the "uid" field is the identifier used to login into the Data Portal when publishing a data package.</p>
+<p>For example, the command</p>
+<pre><code>curl --user 'uid=ecoridge,o=EDI,dc=edirepository,dc=org:asd9wkjas38' -X DELETE 'https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/eml/edi/7'
+</code></pre>
+<p>will "soft delete" all data package revisions of the <strong>edi.7</strong> series in the EDI production environment. To perform a "soft delete" on your data package replace the identifier "ecoridge" and the password "asd9wkjas38" with your own user identifier and password. You may also perform a "soft delete" in the EDI staging environment by replacing <code>pasta.lternet.edu</code> with <code>pasta-s.lternet.edu</code> in the URL.</p>
