You can't hard-delete TLP drafts (as in, delete them from the database). I assume you mean "nuke"?

Yes that's what I meant.

I think so. Someone with more TLP experience than me can weigh in, though.

I don't know much about TLP, but I think bumping (what you're doing here) isn't allowed. You have naught to do but watch and wait.

If you're purging a draft because it isn't good enough, it's best to keep others' criticisms in mind and improve on your remade draft using them.

If you're just reworking the concept, I'm not sure why you would need to nuke the draft entirely. Same goes for if you're bumping the draft; adding a comment to it will be enough to get it to the top of the page if it's sorted by Latest Reply. Same goes for adding "(looking for feedback)" into the title.

If it got a significant amount of bombs early on, and its since been reworked, you can delete and remake to start fresh. You just cant keep deleting and retrying without fixing the issues
