AI Thread Summary
Reposting a missing thread in the General Physics forum is not recommended, as its disappearance likely indicates it did not meet the forum's guidelines. Threads can be moved to the General Discussion section if they fail to adhere to science standards. Users are advised to view thread deletion without infraction as a positive outcome. Additionally, threads may go into moderation for various reasons, such as new members posting links. Overall, it's best to avoid reposting deleted content to maintain forum integrity.

Absolutely not.

Zz.
 
If a thread disappeared, it disappeared for a reason. It would be a bad idea to start it up again.
 
You might find it in GD, some threads are moved there if they don't meet science guidelines.
 
I would take a thread deletion sans infraction as a gift, but that's just my take. I'm "perpectually" amazed at the kindness of strangers. :devil:

Hi,
I posted a thread in Politics forum about India-Election 2011 .
I am not able to find it. I would like to know the status of that thread?
Thanks.
 
It seems it went into moderation, that happens sometimes when new members post links. I took it out of moderation.
 
Thanks for the quick response :)
