Assistance with Script to Add and Delete Page in Adobe Acrobat Pro using Page Templates

Question

I watched the video posted by PDF Form Javascript on YouTube which showed a way to add additional pages and delete them (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlq0NCxamjg).

The problem I ran into was it seems that the script deletes any additional pages added after the template page. I'm looking to incorporate this script to add two separate categories for a tenant portal, I'd like to generate an area for those on the lease (multiple people) and a separate portion of the form for references. The problem is the number of pages will be contingent on the renter and therefore not uniform. I'm trying to work on a script which will allow me to add and delete pages in two separate areas without deleting additional pages not related to the necessary criteria. For instance, if I have (3) renters in an apartment, I'd like to add additional pages for say (3) references, and be able to delete a reference and tenant without deleting other pages in the form. Any help, greatly appreciated!

The delete script, is set to always delete the last page.  Use this script to delete the page on which the delete button is placed.  this.deletePages(event.target.page);

Sorry about that, attached is a crude example. I want to be able to generate multiple rental applicant pages in order. Right now, if I create an additional applicant, it creates page 3 below the applicant vehicle information. Eventually I'd like to be able to use the same coding to add more than one vehicle, but again try to maintain the order of pages to correspond to the vehicle section of the form instead of the new pages being generated after the last current page.
