# Delete a user

`DELETE /admin/users/{username}`

Deleting a user will delete all their repositories, gists, applications, and personal settings. [Suspending a user](https://docs.github.com/enterprise-server@3.7/rest/enterprise-admin/users#suspend-a-user) is often a better option.

You can delete any user account except your own.
