</deletedpages>

Implementation Notes

When a page is deleted, the page and all files on it are moved into the archive.  A page is never permanently deleted; it will remain in the archive until it is restored (POST:archive/pages/{pageid}/restore).  While a page is in the archive, it cannot be modified.

If the recursive=true query parameter is specified, the page and all its descendants will be deleted.  Otherwise, if the page has descendants, a placeholder parent page will be created for them.

Use GET:pages to retrieve a list of existing pages.
