 Dear, Welcome to MediaWiki.org !

PWD
Yeah, PWD needs a few changes in order to make it work on v1.19. But I think it always did have other problems anyway, such as redlinks to those blanked pages showing up as a bright cherry red rather than the appropriate shade of red/maroon depending on whether the page had been clicked; and in some contexts, such as special pages, links to blanked pages showing up as the usual blue.

I kinda lost interest in fixing it after the enwiki community rejecting using it there, and I wasn't able to find anyone to help me with Inclupedia (it's such a big project that I would've wanted a co-founder to assist me with it). There are a number of possible alternatives. One is to give everyone the power to view deleted articles, and then revisiondelete what you really want to remove from the public eye.

Sorry that your time was wasted trying to get it to work. I've edited the Extension:PureWikiDeletion page to note that it's been downgraded to "unstable" status, and noted the alternative configuration here. Leucosticte (talk) 15:32, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
