Why did someone's question get deleted for being in Arabic?
Someone asked "Are you a foreigner?" in Arabic and for some reason it got removed. How is that offensive? Are we censoring out anyone who is different now?

Probably because they posted it in the English language section. After so many gibberish and Chinese language posts taking over the site, users report stuff like that fast to keep it out so it doesn't take over the forum again.
