I finally figured out how it's possible to delete messages in wall and forum threads much more easily.

Basically, removing a reply does not really delete it - if you know the link the wiki originally saved it at, you can still find it.

To permanently delete it, you have to go to this page. But then clicking on delete there never worked, as you are then redirected. But it's possible to turn that off.

To turn it off, go to Special:Preferences -> Under the hood -> Advanced display options (at the bottom) and select "Enable View Source on threads". Then we get a "View Source" link on comments and can delete comments like any normal page.

(However, deleting a comment is permanent then - you can try to undo it, but weird stuff happens then, so it's better not to try that.)
