I only said it was rude and *arguably* had legal implications. That is still my
opinion. I doubt I would personally even investigate legal action if my pages
were restored after I deleted them, but it would certainly sour my taste of
Lugnet.
That brings up another point. My personal pages are stored using a version
control system. If I remove one of my pages, is the version history (for that
page) lost? Or is it just marked empty in the history?
I mean if I went and manually deleted all my pages, would there still be access
to the previous version without resorting to backup (if there is one)?
