Disconnecting a Hero from a world does not leave the character article behind, and cannot delete character without disconnecting from world

According to this page in the codex, I should be able to delete a character while leaving an article behind in the world. However, when I check the page and try to do this, no delete button is present until after I disconnect a character from the world, and after I do that, the character article is gone, too.   So, currently, despite what the codex says, I do not have a way to delete a Hero profile while leaving a character article behind in the world.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create character
  2. Link character to world.
  3. Attempt to delete character (delete button is absent)
  4. Remove character from world; can now delete, but article is removed from the world at the same time as the hero

Hello 121GWJolt!   We are aware that in some cases this might occur - we will be implementing a completely new system to handle this as soon as possible.
