For the sake of neatness I think we may want to leave this as a #Support topic as we covered quite a fair bit 🙂, but I’ve cross-posted the relevant post to the [Topic titles missing from deleted posts page when OP is deleted](https://meta.discourse.org/t/topic-titles-missing-from-deleted-posts-page-when-op-is-deleted/233350) topic, and I’ve passed the feedback about the new Welcome Topic CTA to the Team. 👍
