The revision task is still in the list even though the question it targets at has already been deleted.

Team's Response

Reasons for rejecting the bug:

It is stated in the User Guide that

The revision tasks are not synchronised with the note or the question. Once created, the task content will not change if you modify the corresponding note or question.

So the feature does not deviate from what is expected / specified.

Please think of this scenario, the user has finished a task for the question "Which algorithm can be used to find an item in a sorted list?". It will be tracked and recorded in the finished task list. The user can view it with finished command. Some days later the user decides to remove the question. If the task were to synchronise with the question and is also removed from the task list, the user will not see this finished task in the list, implying that he has not created or done the task. Then he cannot track his progress. Therefore we design in this way to make sure that tasks are not affected once created.

Reasons for downgrading severity: It causes occational inconvenience to the user

Reasons for changing bug type: It does not deviate from what is expected / specified by the User Guide.
