David,
You might try running *./**dspace** index-**init* to blow away and rebuild
the whole browse index. In general the choice of withdraw vs delete is a
question of if you want to retain the item and provide a tombstone for the
item to users over the long term. If you do want that tombstone, withdraw
is best, if you just want the item gone permanently, then delete is best.
The collection delete problem seems like a possible bug in browse.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
