What does it mean to get a notification about "deleted posts"...?

I had a notification earlier for a quote, and went to check, but it only said "deleted post". Is this a bug? If so consider it reported.

Someone posted something and then realised they'd said something stupid, so they deleted it before you could read the notification.

Almost certainly someone deleted their post after quoting you, unless you have a habit of holding conversations with spambots (in which case, we probably deleted the post)
