Can someone help me understand why a thread was deleted?

[yimyammer]

I try to follow the rules and understand what triggers the ban hammer around here but sometimes it doesn't make sense to me. Case in point, I'm confused by a recent deletion and hope a mod or anyone can help explain why it was deleted so I don't make a similar posting mistake going forward

The thread was started twice yesterday with the name Rob Parker in the title, I think they were titled:

"Rob Parker predicts Dallas won't win again in 2019"

and

"Rob Parker Says"

I didn't notice anything offensive or off lints so I'm perplexed why this topic got deleted twice.

Does any know?

Please enlighten us so I don't repeat the same mistake in the future

thx!

Did you copy content from the Dall Morning News?

I didn't and I don't recall DMN being linked. (I didn't start the thread either)

The reason the threads were deleted was discussed with the OP of the thread.

To share it though, they contained no source links or media, and there was a sticky thread (prior to the game threads) reminding users those are required to validate quotes, context, etc.

I pointed the user to the youtube channel where he could find those videos and how to post them in his posts in future posts.
