I just opened up Stack Overflow, and realized I had a -4 in my reputation. I thought I'd been downvoted, and clicked on the two posts that showed the -4. Turns out, I hadn't even answered these posts, but edited them back in '12 when I didn't have edit privileges. Both of these posts had been deleted by Community an hour ago.
I went into the 10k tools and found a fair amount of posts deleted by Community (both with and without answers. Granted, none of the deleted questions were all that good, but I would like to know why they were specifically deleted now? Is there some sort of cleanup script that runs every now and then, or something else?
Here's a list of the questions I could find:
