    Hi all,

    Some discussion regarding NodeBB's handling of soft deleted posts and Discourse's parallel implementation prompted the creation of this FEP, which attempts to describe how the concept of soft deletion can be published without the introduction of new activities—using as:Delete as-is and relying on a backreference check for Tombstone in order to signal a soft delete.

      @Claire, in Feb 2002, you created a topic where you mentioned soft deletes. While this isn't strictly related to Undo(Delete), this FEP recommends thinking of a received Delete as an instruction to invalidate the cache, and re-fetch, which would give you a better answer as to how to handle the received Delete or Undo(Delete).

      Perhaps this might help.

        >Request the object (via its id) from the origin server directly

        Couldn't Delete activity itself indicate the type of operation?

        For example, if Delete contains embedded Tombstone, then treat it as a soft delete. Otherwise, treat it as a hard delete.

        >The Forums and Threaded Discussions Task Force (ForumWG) has identified a common nomenclature when referring to organized objects in a threaded discussion model.

        I find this nomenclature a bit confusing. Commented on the linked issue.

          @[email protected] I noticed today that PieFed supports the concept of soft deletes:

          Perhaps this FEP would be of interest to you.
