user295: The following question: Does contemplation activity, before hand, give rise to the mental image? and the answer has been ddelted. Like to know the reasoning behind this? I believe the answer was an accepted answer too.

Community is not a real person. Its a background process designed to keep the site clean. 
It does things like:

Remove abandoned questions

An abandoned question risks deletion by Community if:
"If the question is more than 30 days old, and ..."
• has −1 or lower score
• has no answers
• is not locked

Answer updated.
I think I found the reason. Digging a little deeper I found another post; How does deleting work and how can a post be deleted?.
A post can be deleted by the System if:
"... By the system:
6.The system will automatically delete any post flagged six times as offensive or spam.
7.The system will automatically delete closed (not as a duplicate), unlocked questions with zero or negative score having no positively scored or accepted answers or pending reopen votes, that were closed 9 or more days ago and haven't been edited in the past 9 days.
8.The system will automatically delete unlocked, unanswered questions that have negative score after 30 days.
9.The system will automatically delete unlocked, unanswered questions with score of zero (or one if the owner is deleted), fewer than 1.5 views per day on average, and fewer than two comments after 365 days.
10.The system will automatically delete any question (and its answers) or answer with a negative score when its owner’s account is deleted.
11.The system will automatically delete questions migrated to other sites after 30 days. Note that this applies only for the original question created on the original site (the “migration stub”), not the question newly created on the other site as a result of the migration. Questions autodeleted under this criterion still have their revision histories visible to everyone, and links to them redirect to the new question instead of showing an error page.
12.Answers with zero or negative score that receive six recommend deletion reviews in the low-quality-posts review queue are automatically deleted “in review”. Answers can be kicked into this queue either automatically or with very low quality and not an answer flags, and can be removed from the queue if enough looks OK reviews are cast against them.
