• Add a new special page to find dead talk pages (talk pages with no corresponding non-talk NS page).

• Remove useless option to not "Move associated talk page". I can't think of a

situation where I do NOT want to move the talk page as well and instead leave
it behind as dead talk page. If untiked by users it only creates chaos, thus:
remove this option or hide it for normal users if there is really a need for
this.

It doesn't hurt to have this *option*, IMO. However useless you may find it, someone, somewhere, may actually use this.

• Return a warning if the page is linked to.

On deleting pages:

• Return a warning if the page is linked to. See

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17708

• Add checkbox to he deletition form "Delete associated talk page". Seems more

useful than NOT moving it... This would cover
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10814

These make sense.

Just noting for the record as this seems to have been brought up recently (progress?): please don't remove the "move associated talk page" tickbox. There is a lot of time during my admin work where I want to leave it unticked, especially during histmerges.

Agree with all the other suggestions though.

The only thing still left to do is "Return a warning if the page is linked to" on page moving, which seems pointless to me. Everything else has either already been done or there is a clear consensus not to do.
