Imho the information should be in the Fedora Package Database, but I do not 
know how it can get in there, e.g. there is only one package listed as 
retired at
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/users/packages/retired
and there are also packages listed as orpaned, that are actually retired:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/thinkpad-kmod (this is 
required according to the wiki).

There is also a ticket about this at hosted:
https://fedorahosted.org/packagedb/ticket/54

So just deleting the wiki page currently seems not to be a good decision, 
better wait till the information can be fed into the package database.

Till
