I'm just trying to keep links like {{Special:PrefixIndex/{{PAGENAME}}/}} in consistent state

sorry to this link, looks like it makes sense to keep it alive

Wikis have their own mechanisms for handling such requests, I'm not sure that a Trac ticket (wiki component) is the right way to handle this. That should probably be reserved for wiki functionality things like adding extensions, etc.

The traditional method for requesting wiki page deletions is to add the text {{delete}} to the page, which adds the delete template. Any user can do this, even anon IPs.

http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Template:Delete

This flags the page easily for sysops (they have the page delete priv), it also serves to open the opportunity for on-wiki discussion of the delete (if such discussion is even needed).

Sysops (wiki admins) can just go to:
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Delete

to find pages that need clean-up. If there is something urgent, you can reach out to sysops via their talk pages or on the wiki team talk page. Sysops are listed on the link off of this page.

http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Wiki_Team/Contacts

Just my two wiki cents.
