Wikipedia – How to Access Deleted Pages

wikipedia

I would like to access a page which has been deleted on Wikipedia (e.g. Junk dna). When going to that page, it says:

This page has been deleted. The deletion and move log for the page are provided below for reference.

Therefore, where or how I can access deleted pages?

Best Answer

The article Junk dna was actually deleted, there is no simple way for a non-administrator to view it. If you really want to get its content, you'll have to contact an administrator to get it for you.

The article Junk DNA (which is a different article) was not deleted. Instead, it was made into a redirect to Noncoding DNA#Junk DNA. If you want to view the redirect page, click the link in "Redirected from Junk DNA" below the article title. You can then work with that article as usual, including viewing its history, which you can use to access the pre-redirect versions of the article.
