Two ways characters are deleted:

1. Inactivity Cleanup and Gold Squish for a healthier economy
2. Player deleting them.

As far as I know, no level 50 and above inactive characters gets deleted, only their names are removed. Only reason a level 50+ character would be deleted is a player deleting it. Either by the account's owner, or by somebody who had access to it with or without owner's knowledge, and deleted a character or two.

In the case of player deleting a character, there's 30 days restoration period. After that, there's no restoration available.
