This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
I have multiple pages on my website, but I want that one specific page exists only in English, and not in German. I would normally just go to all pages, and delete the german one, but I am not sure if this is the right way to do it...
Solution:
In order to delete a translated page, please follow these steps:

- Go to your WordPress dashboard
- Switch to your secondary language using the backend switcher in the top admin bar
- Go to Pages, and Trash the selected page in your secondary language
- Click on 'Trash' and locate the page you just deleted. Click on 'Delete Permanently'
