I don’t know why Facebook should delete a second Facebook fan page if the client deletes the first. There’s no reason to do that. But in any case the client should make sure to have an additional admin besides himself on both pages. Then he should put an announcement — on the one that he plans to delete — pointing people to the one he plans to keep.

As I repeatedly warn, Facebook continually makes major changes. But to the best of my knowledge at this time, deleting one fan page after he has taken the above precaution should be fine.

I have a client that I tried to set up a fan page for last year. Instead, Facebook (or I) screwed up and he now has two different Facebook pages. He want’s me to delete one of them but I’m loathe to do so because I’m afraid Facebook will delete both his accounts. Do you have any idea how I can do this?
