How do I delete a comment when the original text is no longer in the page?

Question

When collaborating on a page we create comments.  Sometimes the text that held the comment has been deleted.  Before final publication of the page we remove all comments since they were only applicable to the collaboration and not the final product.

Those comments attached to deleted text I can't figure out how to delete.

I do see that there are other discussions happening, but I didn't see anything distinct about published or not.  My scenario, while not completely unique is slightly different.

The comment no longer appears on the page, but the comment shows under resolved comments.  I can not restore it to delete it.

Are you saying that although the actual text that the comment was tied to has been deleted, you can still see the comment on the page?

And when you click on this comment you don't have the option to Resolve, Edit or Delete?
