John - this ability is not currently available on Q&A but the feature request is on our backlog for the team. In the interim, if you post a link here for me, I can go and make sure the post you want deleted is removed.

Hi Richard,

Would you also be kind enough to delete the following question

Richard, in my case, the question I wanted to delete is already gone. I have a secret: this very "how do I delete a question" post began its life as some different, technical Microsoft question, whose answer I found elsewhere about five minutes after posting it. Because I couldn't figure out how to delete the now useless original question, which may or may not have included a hostile tone about the usability of one or more Microsoft products, I instead just edited its title and body to thie suddenly far more pressing usability question: "how do I delete a question?" I will almost certainly do the same thing the next time I need to "delete" a young, dumb question I've asked. it's the perfect cover. Nobody suspects a thing, because everyone is too busy agreeing that it'd be cool if we could delete questions.
