    Open a topic and then scroll down all the way to the bottom and in Quick Mod Tools click on Move This Topic. Then in the next window, just choose which forum you want to move it to (in your case, it'd be Basket/Garbage).

    The above is your last answer to my question .

    I guess what I want to ask is . Within a topic . One may have 10 , 20 , 30 subtopics or replies . If I wanted to move 15 of the 30 replies to the garbage . Is there a way to do that ? I mean a quick way ? I suppose I could create new topic . Move the unwanted replies to that new topic . Then move the topic to garbage . Is there another way ? Because I probably have dozens of topics that seriously need trimmed . But I want to save much of it for further reference if needed .

    You have to split the posts from the topic then move that new topic which is created to the garbage.
