@TheGreatDuck First linked question was autodeleted for being closed with nonpositive score for a certain amount of time. It looks like you initiated the closing.
@TheGreatDuck Second linked question, same, same. Third linked question, after it was closed as duplicate, 3 users voted to delete it. I don't know why. 4th question would have been autodeleted, but had been deleted by you, then undeleted by you, then edited, then 3 users voted to delete it (I don't know why, and it likely would have been autodeleted anyway).
@TheGreatDuck For the answer, it was deleted by a moderator, and 2 minutes later the same moderator posted a comment saying, "Okay, just one question: What stops you from deleting the post yourself? Mobile App?" I guess you have context to understand that comment, perhaps a comment you deleted.
The intention is to collect past feature questions which did not receive satisfactory answer and the user who offered the bounty is still interested in the question.
Ok, I will have to leave. (Some real world duties.) Have a nice day!
@TheGreatDuck You flagged and said it ought to be removed. Perhaps you should make up your mind whether you want something deleted before you ask for it.
@DanielFischer because I honestly thought that the posts were garbage. I was told that I was being an idiot and needed to stop messing around with non-Math things.
Well. Okay. And why are you now wondering how it comes that several of your posts were deleted? Have you forgotten that you yourself initiated the deletion?
@TheGreatDuck Since it was deleted by a moderator, only moderators can undelete it. You would have needed to flag, along the lines "I was mistaken when I asked for this to be deleted, can you please undelete?". But now you've re-posted it, so the deleted one better stays deleted.
It's rather broad and unspecific. And a bit silly. If you want to check whether the n-th odd number is prime, computing 2n+1 (or 2n-1, if you start counting at 1) is the least of your problems.
As mentioned here about a month ago the older question was closed and several other questions were closed as duplicates of that one.
Since then it was reopened.
I previously marked the older one as a duplicate, but it was not closed. The fact that suggested duplicate target was closed at the moment might have been part of the reason.
Now I can probably recast my close vote, since it has been some time.
But I think that it would be better to merge them. I like the answer using $k\binom pk=p\binom{p-1}{k-1}$.
The only problem is different notation. One question uses $i$, the other one $k$.
It is probably less work to change i to k in question 2033748.
I can only edit the question and the answers (only mods can edit the comments), but I am certainly willing to do the edits. (I do not want to dump all work on mods.)
Although, it is probably not that much editing in this case.
So if I should edit the answers to one of the questions, feel free to ping me here, and I'll do that. (Probably with edit summary explaining that it's because of merging, so that the OP is not surprised what is going on.)
In such situation, I should first edit one of the question and then flag for merging? Or should I first flag and say in the text of the flag that after they are merged I volunteer to make necessary edits?
BTW review queue is now below 50. I wonder whether it will stay that way, or it is just decrease in activity near the end of the year.
