Would it make sense to automatically delete a page if it's edited and cleared to be entirely empty (or only have whitespace)? Discuss. --[[Joey]]

I'd say so; yes. A method of deleting pages via the web would be great; I can't think of a use of keeping blank pages around. What about vandalism -- if someone blanks a page and deletes it and someone else wishes to restore it; or is undoing edits via the web a bigger issue? -- [[JonDowland]]

Of course there's already a way to delete pages (remove plugin). So the question is really:

  • Does it make sense to have a second way to do it, by clearing the page?
  • Should it be enabled even if the full remove plugin isn't?

Re vandalism in general, I am generally happy using git-revert to kill the offending change. --[[Joey]]
