This task probably needs some rephrasing, because, not being an admin, I was unaware that backlinks are actually warned about on the deletion page itself: F31455157: Screenshot_2019-12-03 Delete Q1000736 - Wikidata.png <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F31455157> So ideally, we would probably warn about uses on Commons directly on this page, instead of admins having to seek out some special page listing the usages. But then again, the page doesn’t currently warn about client wikis that are subscribed to the item either. So it would probably be better to get some input from real admins here, to find out which steps they usually take to ensure that they don’t delete used items, and at what point we should add information about Commons usage.
