Title:
Community Management: ability to send a note when deleting an entry

Area:
Community Management

Summary:
Admins can delete any entry posted in their communities. It would be nice if they could send a note explaining why they did it should they wish to, the same way you can send one when you reject a moderated entry.

Description:
Deletions are not always caused by spam, irrelevant content or blatant disregard of the community rules. It can be the result of a honest mistake and I think having the possibility to explain or clarify something as you delete the entry could be useful. The entry could still be deleted immediately, which is useful when communication with the poster takes time or the entry contains HTML code which breaks one's reading page, and you wouldn't have to enable moderation in communities where 'problematic' entries are a rare occurrence.
