Nov 1, 2018 at 13:47 comment added Paul White Mod @JonofAllTrades One of the considerations is whether the question (well, answers) would indeed ever be useful. Of course many poor questions exist without any answers, so there's that. The wider problem with not deleting rubbish is it makes our site look low quality in places. Some delete-worthy questions have terrible answers that keep them alive. Finally, it's not about what I would consider deleting - I can do that already - it's about what the 10k+ users want to delete (or not).
Nov 1, 2018 at 13:40 comment added Jon of All Trades "...poor-quality questions that somehow managed a positive score, avoided being closed, or gained one or more positively-scored answers" - can you give an example? I'm curious about what kind of questions you'd consider worth deleting if they and their answer(s) are positively scored. Call me an inclusionist, but if such questions might help someone, and aren't hurting anyone, then why put any effort into deleting them?
