Thomas is right, the data sent in the event is supposed to be what the database will contain after the event is done, and that's what will (apparently, but not actually) be in the database after the delete: a new blank document, and doc.originalDoc should be what was before the change in the database. At least this was the original intention, all events should behave like this, so that a diff can be computed between doc and originalDoc regardless of what action happened to the document. However, the Javadoc for DocumentDeletingEvent is misleading: https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-bridge/src/main/java/org/xwiki/bridge/event/DocumentDeletingEvent.java#L31 >> >> So I’d open a bug for this.
