This requires a direct SQL update. The SQL script we used before wont work since this change needs to move the FAQ from a distro to a product. This minor update will work.

UPDATE FAQ
SET
        product = (SELECT id FROM Product WHERE name = 'null'),
        distribution = NULL
WHERE id = 885

Curtis, is there a bug about not being able to do this through the UI? We're not supposed to run custom SQL for things that can't be done through the UI unless it's an emergency.

Thanks for the triage and the bug report. Do I get this right, no one is able to delete an faq, even not members of the answers team?
Curtis what do you mean with reuse, as a normal user I'm not allowed to edit the faq.

Ubuntu owners (the drivers team) can edit it. They can effectively create an new FAQ by by editing the title and content.

Can you help with this problem?
