Mefi deleted posts
Shows deleted posts on Metafilter front page.
A note about erroneous "deleted threads" on AskMetaFilter: When someone posts an Anonymous thread, it gets a thread number, but is not posted to the page right away. It goes into a moderation queue that Mathowie/Jessamyn/Cortex review. Because of this, you'll see a number of deleted threads that will appear to be so-called "scorched earth". The page will say "There is nothing to see here" instead of an archived discussion with a deletion reason. This happens to be what an anonymous thread looks like while it's in-queue. When the admins give it a thumbs-up, it then shows up on the AskMe page at the top _at that point_. Therefore, it's out of order. The "deleted thread" link will still appear where that number belongs, but it will now link to that active discussion.
These bugs are inevitable and very difficult to work around. I've toyed with turning this script _off_ for AskMe, but I've been asked not to. So you'll just have to live with it.
(Note about the note: I added it after WCityMike posted this thread.)

I fixed a bug the other day that would always show a deleted post immediately below any post that only had one comment. Reinstall to get the fixed version. |
