Possible to allow users to move but not delete pages ?

Is it possible to set a page permissions up so that a page can be moved by a user but not deleted? I am assuming not, as I guess a move is a copy and a delete.

We currently force users to use a workflow to delete pages so that it can stop any deletions above a set folder level, and so we deny delete node and child node.

Thanks

Allow permission for only jcr:removeChildNodes so that move operation will be successfully & still delete page restriction will be in place to meet your need. Attaching snapshot for user A offcourse this is not user friendly.

Unless I have misunderstood this does not appear to work. See the attached image. I have a user who is a member of express_default, and express_admin. With the permissions as shown I cannot move or delete. This is in CQ 5.3 but I would have thought this is applicable to any version.
