Description

I have been plagued with those probing "I love this lets talk" comments on my manuscripts and want to delete them but every time I try I get either a 404 error or "Something went wro9ng. The comment has not been deleted! (c101)". I can delet my own comments fine, but when I go to delete comments left by others (spammers) I get the error.

Steps to Reproduce

Open Manuscript chapter scroll to comments click delete on offending comment

I see that the bug was fixed for deleting comments
(as per: https://www.worldanvil.com/community/voting/suggestion/fd3f0e41-d38f-4250-93ae-324ca9767fcb/view)

I went thru and finally deleted the comments that I had difficulty in the past and was able to delete all of them except for this one:

Also, I noticed that the comment count on Manuscript statistics page is not updating with the new number, just as an FYI, So deleted comments are still showing in the counts.

To add to this myself: I cannot delete a reply myself either, I could delete a comment on another article now, but not the following reply (I did delete my own messages in that chain before): https://www.worldanvil.com/community/manuscripts/read/9084010209-michael-chandra-iceburn/5035adec-b047-47fe-89a6-4bf70f62e9b8

If it helps mine has a sub comment also (which I cannot delete). Comments by them selves (no replies) deleted like a hot knife thru butter. :)
