DeviantWatch Recycle Bin (2nd Shot)

~AnOceanOfStars Jan 6, 2013

That's it. At times I mistakenly delete a submission from my DeviantWatch list, and am unable to find it through search because I didn't read title or author, so I'd truly have use of a recycle bin for those things.
As far as I need, items in the recycle bin can be deleted after ten minutes, because if I notice that I've deleted something I didn't want to, I'll go check the bin quite immediately. Or let's make a few hours... who can ever know unexpected needs to go afk immediately and for long.

Everyone makes mistakes, that's why they put erasers on pencils.

--- Actually, this is a repost of this thread: [link] but since the old one died without any hint about the suggestion being accepted or rejected at all despite the apparently good feedback it had (and since I keep on misclicking the DeviantWatch messages now and then), I'm reposting here with hope it gets considered. Besides, the unwanted deletion of a DeviantWatch message hurts both the user and the artist who'll most probably lose watches, faves and comments. ---

I wouldn't mind an 'undo' button to restore the last deleted item, myself.

That would save those accidental deletes.

Yeah don't expect responses from dA staff in here, but they do pay attention. That said, I've made that mistake myself a few times, and your suggestion would be useful.

Staff almost never acknowledge whether or not they're considering a suggestion here in this forum. They mostly read, take in thoughts, and discuss internally with other staff. That's why it's simply a suggestions forum.

As for the suggestion, I agree it would be nice to have a trash bin similar to email, which gets periodically purged. I too sometimes accidentally remove something and then immediately regret it because I don't know where to find it on my own.

There are nearly never any hints of a suggestion being 'accepted or rejected'...
