Allow users to delete shows they have requested #3737

Description

Like the title says, I would like users to have the ability to delete shows from Radarr/Sonarr/Plex (completely delete the associated files). This feature should allow users who requested he shows to also delete those shows (not just to delete the request) .

I've thought about this as a feature as well.

One of the problems with this is one person may request a show that multiple people are actually watching. Once the content is on Plex you don't know who is watching it. If the user also has access to Overseer, then they could just re-request the show but it's going to cause some confusion.

edit: Plex Pass users or people who use Tautulli might be able to provide the watch history to put some smarts into this?

This could be an admin setting. "Allow users to remove content" - It's accepting that there may be some conflicts with people watching it, but I think for most, it would be acceptable. I would rather allow users to delete their content and have it redownload as opposed to wasting disk space.
