I thought I'd recently seen the auto-delete criteria posted here, but I can't find it now...

I fairly frequently downvote closed, downvoted questions just to be sure they get auto-deleted.  Since I can never remember exactly what the rules are for the auto-deletion, if something is -1 with no activity, I'll often make it -2 just to be sure.

According to the [FAQ post on Meta.SO about deletion,][1] my habit of adding another -1 just to be sure a closed question gets deleted isn't necessary:

 - **The system** will automatically delete [unlocked, unanswered questions that have negative score after 30 days][5].
 - **The system** will automatically delete [unlocked, unanswered questions with score of zero (or one if the owner is deleted), fewer than 1.5 views per day on average, and fewer than two comments after a 365 days][6].
 - **The system** will automatically delete any question (and its answers) or answer with a score less than 0 when its owner's account is deleted.
 - **The system** will automatically delete questions migrated to other sites [after 30 days][7].
