that might be - but if you delete the page that holds the records you have 
no chance to reach the records again (only in DB)

So i thimk the proposal of Masi would be the best: Throw a warning, that 
deleting page can damage your data. If you want this, delete them all (mark 
as deleted).
I think check of dependencies is to difficult, you can also reference a 
record in rte or with TS or with DS, as Dmitry mentioned.
But this behaviour would educate people to organize there data in a good 
structure. I took a project, where data records are spread arround and this 
make it really difficult to determine which data are used at any place.
