This question has historical significance, but it is not considered a good, on-topic question for this site, just as said on locked questions. Does it deserve to be undeleted and locked for good?

Seriously though, historical locks are for questions that were on topic once, but became off topic due to a change in the site's scope. That's not the case here.
Also, undeleting the question would send the message that this kind of prank is acceptable. That's also not the case; the user (sock) who posted that question was deleted for spamming the site.
And all the chatter about avocados really needs to stop...

+1for the gif. And because I agree with the answer, but mostly because of the gif. \$\endgroup\$ Jun 28, 2016 at 17:24 -
\$\begingroup\$ Can we undelete and lock it to make it show up on suggested dupes? I recently closed/downvoted/flagged/commented on yet another copy of this question. \$\endgroup\$ Aug 7, 2016 at 3:04

\$\begingroup\$ @NoOneIsHere As I said in my answer, it doesn't meet the requirements for a historical lock. Just flag it for moderator attention, and we'll remove it and deal with the poster. \$\endgroup\$– DennisAug 7, 2016 at 3:07

\$\begingroup\$ @Dennis there isn't other lock types? \$\endgroup\$ Aug 7, 2016 at 3:09

1\$\begingroup\$ @NoOneIsHere Yes, but none that fits here. The closest one would be content dispute, but there's nothing to dispute here. Seriously, we don't need a dupe target for something that is not on topic, not a question, but pretty much vandalism. You couldn't close it as duplicate anyway; the original question would have to get an answer with a positive score first. \$\endgroup\$– DennisAug 7, 2016 at 3:14
