Delete multiple questions/pages at once
When editing a survey, it would be nice to be able to delete multiple questions/pages, rather than having to delete them one at a time. I often copy existing surveys because they contain formating and some similar questions, but I often need to remove many pages and hate clicking on each individual page to delete this content. Could we add an option to the Reorder Questions feature to delete any checked pages?

This is an old thread so I don't know if there is any point to adding a comment here, but I will try it anyway... Please add me to the roster of people in favor of this, but I would also like to add the ability to select and copy one or more individual questions from a page (not just the entire page) rather than having to copy them one at a time. Also would like to be able to reposition them as a group rather than individually. Or did I completely miss this somewhere? I'm creating a course evaluation right now that would have been already finished if only I didn't have to copy and move some of the questions one at a time. Thank you for considering this option. :-)

I completely agree. This would save a ton of time and would actually be easier and less confusing since you have to scroll down after each delete, sometimes causing me to lose my place in a long survey and deleting the wrong page.

I totally agree, when I need to delete multiple responses it is extremely slow. cant believe they missed that

Yes, batch processing of deletes or question title edits is a must! This one feature would save hours of work for the author.
In practice, maybe you can make check-boxes to select what to delete, or simply allow us to remove without a prompt.

I posted my own recommendation, but focused on the Contact Manager. This is a general problem, namely, we cannot multiply select items, responses, contacts, pages, etc., for deletion. Each one has to be deleted individually. This is VERY SLOW AND TEDIOUS!
