Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- Make sure PageTriage is installed
- Make sure you are a new page patroller or admin
- Find an unreviewed page
- Page Curation toolbar will open
- Click the trash can (deletion menu)
- Choose any deletion option (CSD, PROD, AFD)
- Click "Mark for deletion"
What happens?:
- Action is logged in two logs: Deletion tag log, and Page curation log
What should have happened instead?:
- Action should only be logged in Page curation log
Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

I was originally thinking this was a wontfix, but I changed my mind. PageTriage writes exactly the same log entry to two logs: pagetriage-deletion/deletion, and pagetriage-curation/deletion. No other PageTriage actions write to two logs... other actions simply go into pagetriage-curation, which has 5 log_actions to choose from.
I'm going to write a patch that stops writing to Deletion tag log, and also hides the Deletion tag log.
I've advertised this possible removal at NPP and VPT. No objections. Not much response in general, I think this log is unused.
The goal is to clean up double log entries like this:
The only other place that "pagetriage-deletion" is found in our codebases is in this file, where I think it is used to allow the replica databases to display rows containing log_type=pagetriage-deletion. I think this is OK to leave, in case anyone wants to run queries on the data.
