 * Hi
    If I delete “Auto drafts” will it delete existing drafts or deleted drafts?
   I mean, will the drafts I still use be deleted? or is it just the draft that 
   I have thrown away? Thank you

 * Dear [@mushlih](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mushlih/),
 * Auto drafts are generated automatically by WordPress, you can read more here:
   [https://sigmaplugin.com/blog/what-are-wordpress-auto-drafts-and-how-to-clean-them](https://sigmaplugin.com/blog/what-are-wordpress-auto-drafts-and-how-to-clean-them)
 * While drafts are those you have saved explicitly, you can read more here: [https://sigmaplugin.com/blog/what-are-wordpress-drafts-and-how-to-clean-them](https://sigmaplugin.com/blog/what-are-wordpress-drafts-and-how-to-clean-them)
 * So deleting auto drafts will not delete drafts you have saved. But make sure 
   you are not in need of those auto drafts. And please always back up your database
   before any cleanup.
 * Please let me know if you need more details about it.
 * Best regards,
    Younes
