Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/35242

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
The message
"
"/home/phil/...let.server" cannot be deleted because you do not have permissions to modify its parent folder.
"
is remarkably unhelpful.  I don't consider that any particular part of the path is irrelevant to this message, so it would really be sensible to give the path a line of its own, and include the whole thing in all but /really/ exceptional circumstances.
