Description

Admin list of challenges. Click on Options -> Delete of one of the challenges. A message pops up that the challenge was deleted. But it is still in the list. I do reload. Still in the list. I try the whole thing again and now Maproulette is completely dead. Site doesn't answer any more.

Research direction

Start by reproducing deletion from the admin challenge list and observe the response, the list after reload, and the service after a second attempt. Trace the backend request handling that the reproduction reaches; done means the challenge is removed and the service remains responsive.
