yay a wiki where I have sysop rights so I can actually see this. :D

I think part of the problem was i misunderstood what was being reported.

Here is the situation as I understand it currently.

*You want to hide the fact a page ever existed under some title.
*You oversight it out of existence.
*However, if an admin looks at that page title, he will still see the '1
deleted revision'. If the user goes to the special:undelete of that page, the
fact there was a revision is still listed, but all details of that revision are
fully hidden.
*The fact the page at one point existed can also be gleaned by using the prefix
option of special undelete.

*I can not reproduce the claim that such edits appear in deleted contribs as
mentioned in comment 0. (possibly fixed in bug 17792 based on source code
comments).

What should happen:
*totally suppressed revisions like that should not appear in a prefix search
via special:undelete. This would stop people from finding such "hidden" pages
*Its also requested that the 'x deleted revisions' not be shown on the page,
and the direct special:undelete view does not list those revisions.

The first point I think should happen. However for the second point, I could
see not having 'x deleted revisions', but I think removing those revisions from
the special:undelete view would complicate deletion history, and not all that
good of an idea. (Especially when you mix suppressed and non-suppressed deleted
revisions).
