available to the public.
That's a nice idea, but might not work long term since the deleted
page archive is sometimes cleared out.
How about just copying the permission emails to the info-en at
wikimedia.org address? That way it will be permanently archived and
only viewable by people trusted to keep mails confidential (see

parts should still be kept on the talk page though so everyone can see
why the article was not deleted.
