Long list of posts was generated by running a program over the data dump for superuser. Unfortunately, the data is a bit old, and some of the questions have been removed since then. When I tried to verify the existence of these pages, I time out (I guess querying SU a couple thousand times raises some flags somewhere), so I apologize that some of these questions have been removed already. This is designed to make it easier to identify questions to delete, not to do anything else. It is LONG (and this is just the first 1/8th of the dataset)
Here is the list:

(Mod ed: Moved to list to chat message to avoid breaking up the page)
EDIT 1: Here is a link to the code I wrote that generated this list (output is a .csv). It is pretty well documented, but I would be happy to answer any questions. It was also not written for efficiency, though the run-time on my machine is just under 12 seconds, so its not too bad.

) with each post on its own line, it would be much easier to read.cat su-urlslist.txt | while read a; do wget --quiet -O dl.txt $a ; [ ! -s dl.txt ] && echo Deleted: $a; done;
this one-liner will print out urls to already deleted questions. To reverse the behaviour remove the!
