You should delete them.  This requires root access as you have to delete 
the .txt and .txt,v files themselves.  There are simple instructions and 
they are in the Twiki documentation somewhere.

I cannot remember what I had to do to be able to create webs.  I believe 
the user may have to be in the admin users group.  See here for my example:

http://sidicpc22.uwaterloo.ca/twiki/bin/view/User/TWikiAdminGroup

In this case, I am the only member.  I can't remember how I got in there 
in the first place.  I think it may start with ALLOWTOCHANGE being blank 
as default...

Note that I changed my "Main" group to "User" since it is better naming, 
it was recommended somewhere in the docs.

The Twiki docs are very complete, just very big.  To find anything I 
recommend using google as follows:

search for "keyword site:twiki.org" in google.
