Confirm Page Deletion After 14 Days
Deleting a Facebook page removes it from Facebook for 14 days, after which you’re asked to confirm its permanent deletion. Facebook maintains this 14-day page removal period in case you change your mind and want to restore it.
Alternatives to Page Deletion
Before you delete your page, first consider a few alternative options:
Unpublish the page instead: Unpublishing your page makes it inaccessible to the public, including the people who liked the page. The only people who can see your page are those with page roles.Merge the page with an existing similar page: If you’re an admin of another page with a similar name and representation, Facebook allows you to merge it with the one you don’t want to maintain anymore.Download a copy of your page data before you delete it: Obtain your page data so that you have a copy of your posts, photos, videos, and page information.
Each of the above can be done from the page settings tab. Look for the Page Visibility section to unpublish the page, the Merge Posts section to combine it with a similar page, or the Download Page section to download a copy of the page.
Facebook Page vs. Facebook Profile
A Facebook page is different from a profile. Your user profile represents you as an individual. It’s where you interact with friends and maintain control over the privacy of the information you share. A page is a public representation of a person, place, business, organization, or group that other people on Facebook can like and follow.
