Have the owners of the old datasets marked them as permanently deleted?

Greetings,
Despite being an admin, I am unable to remove old datasets from our Galaxy instance. I am following the procedure detailed in:
https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Config/Performance/Purge%20Histories%20...
delete_userless_histories.sh purge_histories.sh purge_libraries.sh purge_folders.sh delete_datasets.sh --> desired to remove datasets before their outer container had been deleted purge_datasets.sh
None of the scripts have been changed. They all call cleanup_datasets.py with -d at 10 and -r enabled.
But it does not appear to have any effect. All datasets (both those older than 10 days and those more recent) in <galaxy root>/database/files are still present, despite the -r setting in each script.
Is there some parameter or such that needs to be set in the universe config that will allow this process to work?
