@DoubleAA I want to delete my environmental post to re-ask the question from a different angle, but it says I can't delete for 2 more hours. What's the rule here, and could you expedite the process?
Do we have a religious obligation to take care of the environment, and if so how far does it extend? Should I spend money to decrease my carbon footprint?
Does Judaism view it as a good idea to be environmentally conscious?
@YEZ oh, the 20k limit! Yeah, 20k users can't vote to delete until a question is 2 days old (or downvoted to some level that I don't remember right now). But I thought the owner of a question could delete if it had no upvoted answers.
I've only skimmed (and haven't read the dupe), but why do you want to delete? Duplicates act as signposts so they're not inherently bad. You could repost your answer on the dupe if it applies there.
(Merging is kind of a pain, in part because it's hard to undo if we mess something up, but since yours is the only answer, you could just put it there instead of us having to merge.)

Once a question has an answer that is considered valuable by either the community (through upvotes) or the asker (through acceptance), no one, including the asker, ought to edit the question in a way that changes its meaning sufficiently to invalidate the existing answer. If people want to get an...
@Shokhet which answer(s) did that edit invalidate? It all still seems to hold together to me, though I only skimmed the answers after reviewing the edits to the question.
@Shokhet my guess is that it's a relatively new tag (created with or after that question) and nobody noticed. :-) Seems like a reasonable tag to have, so please feel free to apply it elsewhere.
