Links to deleted pages:

A) should have &redirect=no 
B) should use a distinct color (not blue). Perhaps these links should be grey, as in Special:AllPages .

For example, have a look at the first line at http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&offset=201204110615017&type=delete&user=Sreejithk2000&page=&tagfilter=

with

05:40, 11 April 2012 Sreejithk2000 (talk | contribs) deleted page File:Sakunthala-pathralekhan.jpg (Exact or scaled-down duplicate: File:Raja Ravi Varma, Sakunthala Pathralekhan (another version).jpg) (global usage; delinker log)

as the file was deleted, it is strange to show the link as a blue link. 

as I did not understand immediately that I was redirected to another different file, I mistakenly believed for long minutes that the file had been undeleted, which is not the case. No undeletion took place. 

There was a previous bug related to this at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23729 but it seems nobody cared to answer. Perhaps I will have more success with a more explicit title ("Links to redirected deleted pages in deletion logs should have &redirect=no and use a distinct color (not blue)
