Kindly restore deleted comment. These erroneous auto-deletions are extremely annoying. If only the Q&A site was as quick to display my posts as it is to delete them!!!!!
Hello RLWA32,
I agree about the annoying deletions. One might have thought that reputation points could help here - even if only to ensure that auto-deleted messages by posters with more than a handful of points were referred for manual inspection.
My priorities are:
The necessity to wait to see whether a message will eventually be allowed to appear and then to post to this group if not is way too onerous. I have given up on point 2 and now just leave my contributions noted as deleted for what I regard as the insulting assertion/insinuation that they are a violation of the code of conduct.

@Gary Nebbett When considering the content of these erroneously auto-deleted messages one has to wonder how the filters can be so lame-brained that they are deleted.
Having to check that a post was not auto-deleted is a quality of service failure and and an unnecessary burden placed on users of the Q&A site. At least to this point responses to complaints about the deleted posts and their reinstatement have been timely.
Hello @RLWA32 ,
You responded at 10:48 (CEST), I received an e-mail notification at 10:50 and just now (after 13:00) your response just became visible in full in the forum - rather a damper on discussion.
Yes, the behaviour of the filters is perplexing. My ideas for heuristics (reputation points, length of forum membership, number of message posted over that time, lists of words that often occur in material that might violate the code of conduct, grammar and ease-of-reading scoring, etc.) would find no problem with the examples that I have seen in the QNA forum and my own messages.
One possibility is that AI is being used and that no humanly accessible/understandable explanations for the decisions are available...

Gary,
The chronic delays in updating Q&A for posted comments/answers is a major failing in the implementation and administration of this site. But another rant about this aging, on-going deficiency won't serve any purpose.

Perhaps another demonstration of pushing something out that just isn't ready for prime time.
Oh well...
