Github - remove issues entered in error

Question

Dozens of issues have been entered into my project on github that have no place there. Some Einstein ran a script and created all these nonsensical issues through the api.

Answer 1

Due to legal problems I've had to delete several issues with many comments of a project. I did as follows:

1. Deleting all comments
2. Editing the text of the issue ("THIS ISSUE WAS DELETED AND BLOCKED")
3. Blocking the issue

Copy paste on browser address bar:

javascript:(function(){ $('.delete-button.octicon.octicon-x.js-comment-delete').each(function(){ href=$(this).attr("href"); if(href!==undefined) { console.log("DELETING: "+href); $.ajax({type:"DELETE",url:href}); } }); firstCommentToedit=$('form.js-comment-update')[0]; $.ajax({ type:"POST", url:firstCommentToedit.action, data:{ _method:$(firstCommentToedit).find('input[name=_method]').val(), "issue[body]":"THIS ISSUE WAS DELETED AND BLOCKED", authenticity_token:$(firstCommentToedit).find('input[name=authenticity_token]').val() } }); lockLink=$('a[href$="/lock"]')[0]; if (lockLink!==undefined) { $.ajax({ type:"POST", url:lockLink.href, data:{_method:$(lockLink).attr("data-method")} }); } setTimeout(function(){window.location=window.location;},3000) })()

Expanded:

javascript: (function() {
    $('.delete-button.octicon.octicon-x.js-comment-delete').each(function() {
        href = $(this).attr("href");
        if (href !== undefined) {
            console.log("DELETING: " + href);
            $.ajax({
                type: "DELETE",
                url: href
            });
        }
    });
    firstCommentToedit = $('form.js-comment-update')[0];
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: firstCommentToedit.action,
        data: {
            _method: $(firstCommentToedit).find('input[name=_method]').val(),
            "issue[body]": "THIS ISSUE WAS DELETED AND BLOCKED",
            authenticity_token: $(firstCommentToedit).find('input[name=authenticity_token]').val()
        }
    });
    lockLink = $('a[href$="/lock"]')[0];
    if (lockLink !== undefined) {
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: lockLink.href,
            data: {
                _method: $(lockLink).attr("data-method")
            }
        });
    }
    setTimeout(function() {
        window.location = window.location;
    }, 3000)
})()
