If the title hasn't been edited by the HN crew you can still delete the story.

  No delete link, unfortunately.

    You can email hn@ycombinator.com, then. Speaking from my experience, dang does a great job responding to user email. Edit: It looks like the story has been [flagged].
    • dang 10y ago
      Yes, users flagged it. Normally that would also kill the story (i.e. close it to new comments and hide it from users who don't have 'showdead' set to 'yes' in their profile), but once there are enough comments, the software presumes there's an ongoing discussion and spares it.

        Thanka dang. I'm curious if the HN software has flagging ring detection in the same way it has voting ring detection.

          That's a great idea. But I imagine it'd be difficult to differentiate between trash getting flagged rapidly by a lot of people and a flagging ring.
