When a game entry gets deleted, does it affect a game you already have imported?

I submitted a change to get Final Fantasy IV SNES deleted (Final Fantasy II and FFIV EasyType already existed) and it went through. I already had something with FFIV imported with the matching DB entry so I was curious what would happen if I updated metadata, and wierdly enough, the DB info is still there even though the page got deleted. I would really prefer if it went through and removed the DB info even if you've already imported the game. I know I can just delete it, but my goal is having sets that match perfectly with the DB, and if someone gets a game removed and I don't know about it, I would like it to be reflected in my collection.

Did you update immediately after it was deleted? Metadata updates every 24 hours, so the change might've not been applied yet.

Have you forced an update? Because the database is downloaded to your machine 'metadata.xml' and any changes wont be reflected until you do that (unless an update has been pushed).

Yeah it worked this morning, so I guess the database hadn't updated yet. Thanks guys!
