The current default log message has three issues:

  1. It only uses the description of the item, not the label (“content was: ""” happens when there was no description). We want either the label and the description, or just the label.
  2. There are no language fallbacks. If the item has no description in the requested language, the “content was” message is empty, even if there was an English description.
  3. The content is based on the deleting user’s language. It should be the wiki’s language, just like the “content was” already is always in English.

Note: Deletions using the action API use the same default log message unless a reason is explicitly specified.
