Aug 8, 2020 at 9:22 comment added David Roberts Mod OK, so it's a software thing. But it's not instantaneous, which is reasonable. As being on the lecturing end finding my students cheating this past semester, I appreciate there being at least a temporary breadcrumb trail that google can see, even it goes away after a week.

Aug 8, 2020 at 6:38 comment added Martin Sleziak @DavidRoberts If a closed question has negative score and no answers, it gets eventually deleted by roomba. Some time ago quid posted this on MathOverflow Meta: Should we try to re-start manual deletions or is the situation fine anyway?
Aug 8, 2020 at 4:45 comment added David Roberts Mod Yes to closing the Q and deleting the account. But the question deleted ... do we scrupulously delete homework questions here? Maybe the software takes care of it, but many times I just see such a question get a -1 score and closed, with a comment to the OP with advice to do a bit of work before asking in another forum. Having some questions that are off-topic visible and closed is useful too, as long as they don't start interfering with the on-topic ones.
