For yahoo; Why do you leave deleted questions up?

    It would appear that the question suggester picks from the full list of questions asked, rather than open questions.

    However, there has also been a bug recently, which shows suggested questions as deleted when actually they are open ... it is possible that this is still an issue.

    I don't think they do, but if you've answered it, then check back, it just says they deleted it so you know what happened.

    Or it stays up for a few minutes because it takes a while for the whole internet to delete it..

    I just turned level 2 for answering this question. <3 :] My Yahoo noob days.
