A global log of all RevisionDelete is needed. Whether it is viewable by people without the tool is not my concern. Currently _nobody_ can review how the tool is being used.
Please clarify global. Is that "all uses on one wiki" or "all uses on a wiki farm"?

A local log which only oversighters can see... that sounds exactly the same as this. I don't see the problem.
Special:Log/suppress does the trick. I could find it when I raised the bug, and others were also complaining it didnt exist.

[[Special:Log/suppress]] does not do the trick. It only shows some suppression of some entries, while others appear in other logs. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=suppress&user=Jayvdb https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=Jayvdb -- John Vandenberg
Suppression is for things hidden from admins, otherwise, it is just deletion.
In this edit, the username is removed and not visible to any admin. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/w/index.php?title=Talk:Toni_Preckwinkle&diff=275430037&oldid=273154453 Yet it appears in the deletion log rather than the suppression log.

Yes, but it is not hidden from admins. "Apply these restrictions to administrators and lock this interface" is not checked.
