Description

Based on this comment, it seems that some drafts cannot be deleted on the translation dashboard.

We may need to investigate what makes that particular instance not work as expected.

I experienced the same with a test translation for "Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers" from English to Spanish (translation ID: 629216). The trash button in the dashboard has no effect and the console shows no error.

Hi. I want to delete to my old (four years ago) -but not published)- translation. But although i click the delete button, it doesn't delete.

Can you share the article title and the languages (source and target) for this translation? There is a process that discards translations automatically after one year of inactivity. This checking this particular translation would allow to determine whether the underlying data or just the item in the list got stuck.

Thanks, @emircimehmed.
Looking with the translation debugger, it seems that the translation and contents are still in the system since 2016. @KartikMistry any idea on why this has not been deleted by the automatic process? @santhosh any idea on why this cannot be deleted manually from the dashboard?
