Why were the comments removed from this question when the comments provided the answer?

Why aren't spam and offensive answers simply deleted from the database?
A good reason to keep these posts around—and I'm not talking about Viagra or Gucci spam, but excessive promotion for file recovery tools et cetera—is to keep the evidence. Note that I'm using the word …

'Preserve' State for keep real bad questions as reference
the system lacks a final bad-question-keep-for-reference state
This is by design. Bad questions are only kept for longer if the answers are (or have been) somewhat useful. But even then, at some poi …

To improve the Superuser search feature by allowing partially match ("like", "contains") logic
Searching "partial matches" is already possible. If you search for *shortcatapp*, you'll get the expected result.

Add a 'No Caps Lock' message/hint/check on the website
I have to agree with Oliver there. Generally, those kinds of users who post egregriously low quality stuff are also the ones who skip past the guides you put in their way. The How to Ask page is not m …

Require users that plan to edit flood over a certain rate / amount to get permission
I believe we don't need additional measures.
We've had the occasional edit floods before (like with the re-uploading of images), but ever since then, we've been very cautious, and I guess the Meta com …
