Yahoo Answers is shutting down on 4 May 2021 (Eastern Time) and the Yahoo Answers website is now in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

I got an email for best answer and the question is deleted?

It does NOT appear under my profile>best answers. I don't know whether I got 10 points or not. Mostly, I am bummed that I can't find it. And I don't know the name of the person who asked it. It seemed innocuous to me - it was a dream!

    I found this in the help section. The reasons why a question/answer is deleted. If there was no violation, then I guess the asker deleted his question.

    Content on Yahoo!7 Answers may be deleted for several reasons:

    * Yahoo!7 determines that your content is in violation of the Yahoo!7 Answers Community Guidelines or the Yahoo!7 Terms of Service

    * The community determines that your content is in violation of the Yahoo!7 Answers Community Guidelines or the Yahoo!7 Terms of Service

    * Your question expired with no answers

    * Your question went to voting and the community decided there were no best answers

    * You deleted the question or answer yourself

    * The best answer to your question was removed by Yahoo!7 or the community (when a best answer is removed, the associated question is automatically removed)
