Question

How do I get FB to automatically delete pages after a certain period? Possibly I am doing something terribly wrong but each of my web sites “events” corresponds to a unique url with event specific FB meta data and open graph data. The web app side auto deletes events after the actual event has passed if it has a date and period. The problem is that these pages which have been “shared” to FB continue to exist in FB. e.g consider this long term in the future “event” :-

http://shamrockirishbar.com/event?id=1997

Now when that date has passed then the event is purged from the DB but if it has been “shared” to FB then the it appears as one of my FB pages still. How do I set it up to automatically purge from FB?

I don’t believe you can do this programatically. The Facebook docs for the Page object include a ‘create’ method but not a ‘delete’ one.
