Delete When Cooked

Delete when cooked is a WikiTag that explicitly asks other users to delete this comment, once they have dealt with it (in any way).

Of course anyone can (and should) delete everything if they seem it fit. This is a Wiki, after all. But DeleteWhenCooked means that the author of the comment explicitly asks to do this. Perhaps this is a stupid tag and we should just BeBold, but I felt it appropriate in some situations e.g.

• Adding a note that something could perhaps be changed. Here DeleteWhenCooked means: Please consider this, and when you have decided to change or not to change it, delete my note.
• When answering a question, I could add "Did I fill in enough details to answer your question?". If the answer is "yes", I don't want this dialogue to be preserved, so delete it when cooked.

It's also possible to add AnswerMe to a question so others know where to find open questions.

See DeleteWhenCooked on Ward's Wiki for details.
