Restore/delete associated talk page (API)
Open, Needs TriagePublicFeature
Actions

Description

Add a parameter to delete and undelete to also delete/restore the associated talk page, if one (used to) exist. This should delete/restore all revisions of the associated talk page.

Use case: Restore-a-lot will use this. (I'll add it) It's also extremely likely that it will be added to DelReqHandler.

I can assist with testing.

I have already considered API support as inherent part of T27471. But deletion logic is unfortunately currently living and tightly coupled with Article class which is undergoing many changes rendering the codepath almost unstable and harder to work with. But I will revisit this now.
