Forum threads and Message Wall function identically in many ways, because the New Forum was built upon Message Wall.

 * it seems the main issue is that the timestamp version isn't removed when the item is deleted.

The only issue is that "deleting" a thread, whether it is a board_thread or wall_thread, does not really "delete" the page, it just hides the page.

The "timestamp version" is the page. Thread:XXX is only an alias, where XXX is the internal page number.

For the example above, "Thread:2139" refers to PAGEID: 2139, FULLPAGENAME: "Thread:Dartmaster8/@comment-452-20150125212757"

If you looked at the database dump, you would see: Thread:Dartmaster8/@comment-452-20150125212757 2139

And for this message, =

While there are a number of advanced ways to find it, anyone can look at Special:Contributions and access "deleted" threads.
