Merge Game: Admins should be able to delete it directly

I wouldn't support this while #29 isn't implemented. It's already a problem to revert erroneous edits which are as easy as a click of a button; deletions followed by undeletions would be even more undesirable. At least the way it currently works there's an extra verification step and the page logs aren't polluted.

But if there's an easy way to cancel an edit (with a few seconds' buffer so nothing is committed to wikidata if an edit is reverted right away) then I'd support this, since it reduces the burden of admins at wikidata.

Admins have a setting for this in the game. Has been there for a while.
