What if we change the article creation page to

sentence of the sixth bullet point. Instead I'm thinking a pretty
warning box would be more appropriate, one that only appears when the
article has actually been deleted in the past.
Excellent idea - can we do this with a CSS hack, or will it require a
patch?
I suspect that at the barest minimum, some skullduggery with the wikitext
will be required. I'm not sure if there's an easy way to identify whether an
article has been deleted before, ATM.
