My apologies to maveric and you all. Like everywhere, I seem to break more than I heal. Please remove my moderator access, and block my site for 7 days while I think about whether it has any use that I am helping you.

I see no reason to do either; you're a useful contributor, and I don't see any real damage done. You just gave us a scare.

I recall once suggesting as a feature some sort of "trash bin" where deleted articles could go, residing there for a while before becoming _really_ deleted. That way, even an administrative delete can be reverted if it's noticed in a timely manner, in case some admin has an accident or goes bonkers.

And I would certainly feel more comfortable bearing the responsibility of the delete key with something like this in place, too. :)
