| Apr 7, 2018 at 5:38 | comment | added | user14972 | @MarianoSuárez-Álvarez: IMO, the best way to raise a point about policy is by directly posting a question about the policy, rather than posting a vaguely related question which you use as a soapbox to ramble on various topics. | |
| Apr 6, 2018 at 20:43 | comment | added | amWhy | @Mariano You've had so many "My point is...", veering off your original post. Please make those doing their best to respond to you in a position in which we're chasing a moving target. Pick your one main point (one question per post). You keep veering off with ever-changing "points". | |
| Apr 6, 2018 at 16:33 | comment | added | Mariano Suárez-Álvarez Mod | As I wrote, this is the very first time that after undeleting a question which had been deleted in an act of self-vandalization by someone possibly cheating or something, I find that experienced users delete again the same content. When the actions of our experienced users —coming out of what seems to be quite a consensus— have the same end result with respect to useful content as the actions of someone using the site to cheat and later cover her tracks, we have a problem, and it is slightly more serious than the deletion of an answer. That is what this post is about. | |
| Apr 6, 2018 at 16:31 | comment | added | Mariano Suárez-Álvarez Mod | You are surprised because you think that the point of this post was to get the question undeleted, I guess. But its point is to tell the community that I think that in its quest against "bad questions", which is certainly good, it is killing content which is useful, which is bad: how does anyone —a moderator or a non-moderator— raise a point about policy? | |

| Apr 6, 2018 at 13:23 | comment | added | amWhy | There doesn't seem to have been any reopenings. But I suppose you meant "after x number of deletion/undeletions?" | |
| Apr 6, 2018 at 13:22 | comment | added | Ron Gordon | Ah, I see. Is there a way to protect the question after x number of reopenenings? | |
| Apr 6, 2018 at 13:14 | comment | added | amWhy | Mariano did undelete the original's asker's deletion. Later, after the question's undeletion, it was deleted by three users. After that, Mariano undeleted it again. Then it was again deleted by three votes from users. | |
