Requesting that this question be re-opened. The referenced "duplicate" does not answer the original poster's implicit confusion. This confusion surfaced following his reaction to my posting. I tried to address the confusion in my Addendum.

requesting quick deletion for math.stackexchange.com/q/4883826/229197 (i already flagged)

@EvanChen Regarding your flag (which I am going to answer here, since the box for replying to flags only gives me about 200 characters): I cannot close / delete a problem under the contest problem policy without a publicly available list of problems, and a publicly viewable ruleset which indicates that getting outside help is cheating. As a moderator, my hands are tied.

That being said, I am all for closing low-quality questions (which this one is).

I would also recommend that you leave comments on problems which are competition problems---the rest of the community can vote to close in cases where moderators cannot really act.

Yeah, I kind of was trying to avoid drawing attention to the thread by saying it's a competition problem since it's not particularly hard to guess which one, so I thought to ask cured first.

Thanks for the help.

@EvanChen I think it needs 3 downvotes first?

yeah. For 20k+ rep people to be able to delete a question immediately after its closed, the question needs to have score of at most -3

so to help them delete it we need to downvote it first

@Jakobian Yes, but the question is closed, so answering is no longer possible. One could answer in the comments, but that is flaggable.

@XanderHenderson Evan requested for deletion

@Jakobian Yes. I am aware, as is indicated by the comments I left below the comment to which I was responding. The issue is not that the question needs to be deleted, but that it is a competition problem, and there is a desire to prevent cheating.

Hence the reason for the request for deletion is largely handled by closing.
