The unregistered user petra tried to remove this answer as it really isn't an answer. However, it seems that unregistered users don't get to see a "delete" link below the post. Is this a bug or a feature?

From Shog's accepted answer to What can cause a post to be deleted, and what does that actually mean?:
When can't I delete my own post?
You can't delete your answer if it has been accepted.
You can't delete your question if it has more than two answers, if an answer has a score >= 2, or it has been closed less than 48 hours ago.
You can't delete any of your questions or answers if you haven't registered your account (associated an OpenID with it).

Thanks. So I guess that in such a case, flagging for moderator attention is the correct approach. Dec 20, 2010 at 19:48

Is it good to delete your own (correct) answers if others have given more complete ones? Dec 31, 2010 at 22:53
I don't know the answer to the actual question, but moderators can delete posts. So if this arises again, flag the post for moderator attention.
(I just left a note on that answer saying that I'd delete it once you and Petra had seen my note saying that I'd delete it...)
