I was just wandering around the site enjoying some free time reading the message board and other information....

On the Server Status page, under Results (on the right side), what does ‘deleted 205,422’ mean/refer to? Vice “valid 171,563� ?

If deleted means there was some problem with the returned WU, then MORE than 1 deleted for 1 valid seems a rather poor validity rate.

Maybe a link from those words (and other unusual non-obvious) to definitions could be done [very low low priority]. Hopefully most BOINC projects have same general definitions.

you may have noticed that your results get deleted after validation (on the status page of your computer/s).
This deletion is done for all users (to reduce database size) and is described by this number.
No WUs with errors but the validated WUs that have been processed properly.
