  1. If 3 or more answers of user having < 10 rep is deleted, the question gets auto-protected. This is because majority of the time, the "answers" are me-too posts rather than just answers and was implemented as part of a feature request.

  2. Is a bug, being tracked at Meta.SO: “Migrated from” banner looks wrong
