@JeremyMiller You did nothing wrong.

If you're referring to the "Like everything else, ok in moderation." answer, it hasn't been deleted (although I'm about to delete it).

Users with "trusted user" privileges ( > 4000 reputation in beta sites) can cast delete votes directly on answers (if they've got a low enough score). However, it still takes several user delete votes (or one moderator delete vote) to actually delete an answer.

Right now that answer has 2 user delete votes, so it still needs 1 more (I believe).

I'm not sure how the review queues play into it, but it seems the 2 delete votes were from 2 other high-rep users.

I've cast a delete vote of my own, so it is no longer visible, but if you have any further questions about it, or the process, please let me know.
