There is a subtle difference between deleting a page and vandalizing it
with one character: If a page is deleted (text set to nothing) it is
removed from the content tree that is shown on the start page - and in
some themes in the sidebar. The sidebar with the content tree is a major
navigational element in our wiki. If a page gets deleted, other users
can't find it anymore.
So I ask my question again: Where do I put the check if the posted text
is empty and the user has delete rights? Is it possible to put that in a
plugin? Or do I have to edit act_permcheck in actions.php directly?
