I don't think it is page blanking, but if the work has gone permanently it generally goes to the Unpublished Works on the Darth Wiki (or at least fanfic does, what we do with ebooks I don't know, we don't punt real books to the darth if they go out of print or are withdrawn). If it is to come back then I think we just update the page with new trope usages when they occur.

For real, published books, assuming that the writer doesn't have some kind of magic wand to wave that erases all copies anywhere, it still gets a normal Literature page. If appropriate, a note may be added in the description observing that it has been taken down, but until the rewrite is published, we trope what exists.
