A global log of all RevisionDelete is needed. Whether it is viewable by people without the tool is not my concern. Currently _nobody_ can review how the tool is being used.

The local log should be fine (log/suppression)

I don't think that's true - there is a local log. How is that any different from the logging in Oversight? A local log which only oversighters can see... that sounds exactly the same as this. I don't see the problem.

Special:Log/suppress does the trick. I could find it when I raised the bug, and others were also complaining it didnt exist.

Brion fixed a typo in initializesettings.php that caused Oversights to lack the suppression log right a few days ago, so that would explain why people couldn't find it.

[[Special:Log/suppress]] does not do the trick. It only shows some suppression of some entries, while others appear in other logs.

In this edit, the username is removed and not visible to any admin.
Yet it appears in the deletion log rather than the suppression log.

That revision is not suppressed.
The username was hidden from view.

Yes, but it is not hidden from admins. "Apply these restrictions to administrators and lock this interface" is not checked.
