Why was this question automatically deleted by the Community♦ user?

Question

This question on Drupal Answers Meta was deleted by the Community user 10 days after I closed it as too localized. Why?

The question was:

Asked on this very site on October 2012, and migrated the same day on Drupal Answers Meta
Closed as too localized on January 2013
Deleted on January 2013, 10 days after it was closed

The question's score is 13, and it has an answer with a score of 18.

Another strange fact is that the answer has a pending undelete vote.

I also heard that Community♦ threatened to rage quit last week, might be time for an intervention. — user159834, Commented Feb 22, 2013 at 16:52

@WesleyMurch Time for firing it! (Or should I say fire him, or fire her?) — avpaderno, Commented Feb 22, 2013 at 16:53
Ever since Community♦ started wearing all those fancy hats of Christmas s/he's become a law unto themselves! — JonW, Commented Feb 22, 2013 at 16:53
@Jim I was expecting an edit from the Community user. Now, that would have been funny. ;) — avpaderno, Commented Feb 22, 2013 at 16:55

Rejected migration stubs are automatically cleaned up by the system after a certain period of time, as I previously mentioned.

why on earth would that be a rejected migration? If a question about running site X is not on topic on site X's meta, I'm confused...

The system is indiscriminate here. The post was migrated to the per-site meta, where it was closed as "too localized", which the system took to mean the migration was being rejected.

Something it seems the moderator didn't know. OK.
