When a question is deleted by a moderator, the work of the responders is lost. Can this be prevented?

Hello.
This situation is repeated many times:
1. Respondents spend time and energy to help the one who asked the question.
2. The moderator deletes and all the work of people is irretrievably "killed".
Can this be prevented?
For example, move the question to the custom category "Trash" -> "Deleted by moderators" so that you can go there and see if you showed any activity in it before the deletion (like, subscribe, answer, comment)?
Who has any thoughts on this matter and wishes to the administration of the toaster?
Thank you.
UPD:
You need to have a "basket" for users who have been active in a remote issue. And it was thrown there when the moderator deleted it, indicating the reason from above and the question itself - below. And if the user does not need it, he himself would delete it from there.
Questions from the trash - should be available only from the account that was active in these deleted questions and no one else.
Also, I would like the answer to still reach the one who asked the question.
Those. removal by moderators - would remove the question from the general mass and the public. And for everyone who participated in the discussion - he would continue to be in active mode, but already in the "basket".
UPD2:
Can give people the opportunity to simply vote with buttons (horizontal bar in doubt): "interesting", "income", "holivar", "to freelance", "to google", "to be deleted", etc. And if any of the options is separated from all the others by >50%, display it as a label in the general list (and hide it if <=50%), and by the deletion trigger: >80% move it to the trash.
If you simply output which is greater (and not > 50% between 1st and 2nd place) - then this will mislead the answering people about the content of the question.
Then it will be much easier for the moderators, because the main work will be done by those who are responsible.

Personally, I'm more offended when the question is deleted while you are writing the answer;)
Write ten lines of text, click "Publish" and bummer.
But such is the selyavi.

In my opinion, the problem is not that there is no basket, but that the moderator deletes the topic in the midst of the conversation. The easiest way to fix this is to delete such topics not immediately, but after a week, for example. People sometimes need to offtopic and discuss some abstract things like "Why is my code so perfect-wonderful?", and moderators want people to fill the site with only relevant content, answering questions on the merits.

Unfortunately, the functionality of the service and the speed of introducing new functionality leaves much to be desired.
And the moderators are faced with a choice: to use the functionality that is available or to lower the bar of tolerance very much. Both options are far from ideal, so we try to delegate this process to users: those questions that are explicitly spelled out in the moderator's code are deleted (no, I won't give a link, ask the administration to finally make public rules of the service) or those that visitors complain about. We ourselves usually first send a complaint to the question to add our vote to the rest, something like an internal vote.
So we don’t have any “watchman syndrome” and “lawlessness”, we have internal rules and a process. Unfortunately, the administration does nothing to make this process public, and I consider myself not in the right to publish something on my own initiative.
PS It would be ironic if one of my colleagues deleted the question while I was writing all this :)

Previously, there was a special section for this (/temp), where these eternal ones “Where to go to study”, “What language to choose”, and similar “How to live on”, were constantly transferred, but with the next update it was abolished.

There is a great solution. Treat Toaster easier. Deleted, it happens, next time you're lucky.
