How do you delete a question you asked on Quora
Deleting a question on Quora is not straightforward once it has received an answer. Here's what you need to know:
-
Initial Timeframe: When you first ask a question, you have a brief window (typically a couple of minutes) during which you can delete it. This is before any answers are provided.
-
After Receiving Answers: Once your question has been answered, you cannot delete it. The question becomes part of the community content, and Quora does not allow deletion to maintain the integrity of the discussions and answers provided.
-
Workaround: If you want to remove your question before it gets answered, you need to act quickly. However, if it has already been answered, you cannot delete it. You might consider editing the question to make it more relevant or accurate if needed.
In summary, you can delete a question on Quora only if it hasn't received any answers yet, and this must be done within a short time frame after posting1.
