This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
Without a doubt, moderators and administrators must have permission to delete anything posted in here. What about normal users? Should they be able to delete postings? And if yes, which postings?
To keep this poll representative, please only vote for a single answer. Feel free to add other answers to vote on, and discuss in the comments.
Note: I am aware that this topic has been sideline-discussed in the comments of different questions as a consequence of deletion accidents / incidents. But AFAIK it has never been discussed with focus or voted on.
Regardless of who can delete things, there should always be a confirmation dialog when deleting anything, to prevent accidental (and un-cancelable) deletions. I once deleted an answer by another user without ever noticing I did it – accidentally clicked on "delete", I guess.
