I've done a few tests to check the permissions: To move a subfolder (i.e. cut and move to trash): Write permission of parent and subfolder required. (Don't understand why write permission of subfolder is required as I could copy and delete it without having them...) To move a file: Write permission of parent folder required. To delete a subfolder: Write permission of parent folder and permission to delete each nested subfolder/file required. To delete a file: Write permission of parent folder required. This is only (if at all) valid for standard unix permissions, of course, and without tmp directories and similar special cases. I assume it'd be rather much more complicated with acls and/or network file systems.
