Why does my question get deleted?

Question

I asked why The Iowans are acting different from the Katria people. I now do not want an answer to that question, i simply want a serious answer as to why i cant even ask that question? Please someone answer in detail why i cannot ask a simple question?

Answer 1

You should ask this question in the Yahoo Answers forum (Yahoo! Products > Yahoo! Answers). "Why did my question get deleted?" is asked there all the time, and the people that answer in that forum know the guidelines very well.

I don't know how you asked it, so I can't definitively say that you broke the guidelines. But it's possible that the YA people have "Katrina" flagged as a potential abuse question  and delete it right away. If you check your email, there will be an alert that your question was a violation. From that email, you can submit an appeal if you think it was deleted by mistake.

Be sure to demonstrate in your appeal that you had a genuine academic curiosity and acknowledge that maybe you just didn't word it correctly. Read the guidelines before doing anything, though!

Answer 2

we dont know how you asked it, maybe it was your wording. I have answered several questions on the same subject... For a question and or answer to be deleted and or removed , means youve violated it some way , form or fashion...

Answer 3

because Yahoo! won't allow questions like that.

Like what, you ask?

Well, read the TOS and the Community Guidelines, of course.
