  • You can only delete a question that comes from your account. You can report questions from someone else account by hovering your cursor over the question and your see a flag on the top right of the question. Click on that and report the question. For your own questions: First off if you are using a mobile phone switch to desktop mode. To delete a question with no answers just click on the blue edit button and click on delete question. Once your question has been answered this option is removed and you can not delete the question. The question is now the property of Yahoo. Not much you can do at this point except to make the question anonymous.

    The way the format is set up, you can't Delete a Question if it has even just 1 Answer.

    Switch to Desktop mode on Mobile.

    Before an Answer is given click the Blue Edit Tab under the Question and then Delete.

    The Delete option for your Question goes away with an Answer being given and only will show Add Update and Make Anonymous.

    You can use the Make Anonymous choice so no one will know it is you if Questions or Answers are of a personal nature.

    To use that Click Edit / Make Anonymous

    If you use the Anonymous option, it will not show your name or avatar, and cannot be clicked to see your profile. Anonymous questions will not show to anyone on your profile page, only you will see it.

    You can only delete them if they have received no answers. Click on 'Edit', and then delete the question.
