Currently it is possible to delete a picture, PDF of webpage without any warnings even if (internal) links to these pages exist in Magnoila. The result are broken links (not rendered).

Please provide a mechanism in the system to warn authors when deleting objects with dependant pages.

IMHO an enterprise Content dependencies module already does this job:

The content dependencies module provides functionality to track what content is referred to and by web pages and dms assets (e.g. images, documents). This is used, for instance, to alert users when deleting a page which other pages depend on and will help preventing having e.g. broken links in the pages depending on the content being deleted. The module also adds a dependencies tab to the workflow edit dialog listing all referred content (pages, images and documents) by a content being activated or deactivated. For each of those dependencies an icon indicating activation status is shown as well. This will help preventing that a content is e.g. activated in an inconsistent state.

Taking over from Maximilian: the content dependencies module does the job - thanks for the tip!

You're welcome. If you would need to provide with any details, please ask at support, I'm closing this.
