It was deleted Dec 17, 2011. @tmkctm: did you find this question in an old dump?

The question will be deleted in three weeks?

Until somebody comes along that actually knows what they are talking about, a quick guess: the question you menion got deleted after the dump was created; if you say which dump (creation date) you are using somebody might confirm this.

(Note: just clicking the link does not illustrate the phenomenon to be highlight as the dot is in the link; it also does not work but in a diffeent way.)

I didn't know where to place this question so I placed in under General.
I need help from the website support team.
I downloaded you dump file posts.xml and Use it's data (thanks by the way).
The problem is that some questions that appear in the dump under a certain ID return 404 when I try to link them with: http://mathoverflow.net/questions/[ID]
for example: http://mathoverflow.net/questions/47579. the ID 47579 appears in the dump with the title: "Help with simplifying a simple infinite series".
But you can try and see that mathoverflow.net can't find it.
What is the reason for this and how can I recognize records in the dump that don't really exist in the site?
Thank you for any help.
