Yes. Deletion is a permanent operation and deletes any history or changelog for the page. There is no easy way to revert it, so that should be used with caution. > I believe if a normal registered user is allowed to create pages, he/she > should also be allowed to remove their own pages again. Who owns a page? The user who started it? The user who contributed the most? The last user editing the page? As many people can make edits on a single page it would be bad if someone else could delete it just because they created it... > (But, I don't know how isolation between different users is actually > implemented, so perhaps this is even not possible to arrange in a safe > manner.) There are no user-specific permissions in Trac AFAIK.
