My question was deleted. Was this on random or following a policy?

My question was deleted. Is there a policy for deleting questions here? Is there a meta answer showing this very policy? (Or is questions deleted more randomly). Not that I take it too seriously but I feel that deleting a fair question is suspicious. That my question was put on hold was also suspicious, but deleting, really? How come.

Is this following a guideline? The deletion of questions on hold. Is it perhaps something that happens automatically after due time.


I asked a question here (I only have one question here on Ask!). I got an acceptable answer , or so I thought. The answer turned out not to work in ubuntu 32 bit, only on ubuntu 64 bit. I needed it to work in 32 bit as well.

My other question was deleted (very similar question but with the specifics that I wanted an answer that worked on ubuntu 32 bit).

It went - after 5 days it was put on "hold", kind of, "unspecific question", then now 4 months later it turned out it has been deleted.
