Jan 3, 2021 at 12:10 comment added Martin Sleziak Some discussion on visibility of deleted posts (basically a follow-up to the first comment by Federico Poloni) can be found in chat.
Jan 3, 2021 at 11:25 comment added Martin Sleziak @FedericoPoloni I cannot see what is on that page since this is only available to 10k+ users. I'd expect that some users on Mathematics do look at that page (judging by the fact that some users on meta said it would be better the number of the recent deletions displayed there would be larger). My impression that on MathOverflow, not many users are involved in the community moderation. (Moreover, it has less 10k+ users than Mathematics.)
Jan 3, 2021 at 11:12 comment added Federico Poloni @MartinSleziak Do any users actually monitor that page? Frankly, I would have considered you the most likely person to do it. So if you write that even you don't do it, I think no one else does. :)
Jan 3, 2021 at 11:10 comment added Federico Poloni I don't think this is 100% correct: users with 10k+ rep can see deleted answers, but not deleted questions nor comments. Deleted questions and comments are very well hidden from the general public of users, and the possibility for independent review is intentionally very limited. The only place where deleted questions can be seen is the recently deleted tab, where they can be seen for a maximum of 30 days.
Jan 1, 2021 at 12:34 comment added Martin Sleziak I will add that 10k+ users can see recent deletions/undeletions in the moderator tools. Probably at least some users monitors those lists - and if they see there questions which should be undeleted, they vote accordingly.
