Adding new pages is done by navigating to them, either by creating a link
and clicking it or just by editing the URL. You'll then get a "create this
page" prompt. This is pretty standard across all wikis.

Deleting is usually more implementation specific. The B Nomic wiki uses
MoinMoin. In MoinMoin, there will be a link somewhere on the page to let
you delete it, although exactly where depends on what theme you're using.
In the RightSideBar theme (the default), there's a section of the sidebar
labeled "Actions", one of which is DeletePage.

Regardless of the theme, it'll take you to the URL <page
url>?action=DeletePage ; adding that to the end of the URL for any wiki
page will delete the page (or rather, ask you whether you're sure you want
to delete it).

For example:
http://www.bnomic.org/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/HallOfTalismans_2fobjs_2fWard_20of_20Replatement?action=DeletePage
