    This is just to put in a request that the following thread be kept open http://mathoverflow.net/questions/42575/site-whose-objective-is-the-subjective-side-of-math-closed

    I do realise the question is probably not as such appropriate for this forum (as has been duly explained in the replies).

    I am still making this request, as I believe the answers in this case answer much more than the question asked.

    Do you actually want it open or just available as a reference? If the latter, there is no barrier to that in the question being closed.

    Oh! I thought the answers will get deleted too. I have noticed some of the closed questions disappear, am not sure if it is because whoever asked the question decided to delete it themselves or if it was the result of some clean up job done by the moderators.

    Very few closed questions are actually deleted. I believe the policy roughly is they're deleted only if deemed spam. But closed questions tend to be more difficult to find on MO. One way to look for them is to click on "tags" and do a search for the"tag-removed" tag.
