while I see the reasoning, this would result into tens of thousands of notifications going out every day, many of them from public GA's which get deleted before they end/because of <reason here>, when those get fixed its usually a public GA again so it will be an annoying notification for many.

There could easily be a toggle for which notifications you want to recieve, imo better to have an option and an ability to disable it, than no option at all.

Same - I don't see the benefits of it and would probably be more annoyed than anything, but if that could be disabled I don't see a reason to object

-1 (Yes that is minus, so it eats one +1 above) :D

+1 for the idea.
On a similar note it would also be nice to have one for deleted comment/reply messages saying something like "This comment was deleted".
I remember getting confused by a message notification when there wasn't a new message showing up. I checked everywhere I had recently commented for possible replies, but I couldn't find any "deleted comments".

Sounds reasonable.
BTW, you can already check for deleted giveaways on https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/entered/search?sort=all, but that's far from being convenient.

Not much to say about this, but it would be nice if, should an entered giveaway be deleted, or an entry otherwise refunded for any other reason, there could be a notification about it in your message inbox. It'd help with re-entering fixed giveaways whose first iteration had errors, and it'd otherwise remove the annoyance of figuring out which GA got canned overnight.
edit: Alternatively, let users see a log of the last week or so of their points, instead of sending notifications. Similarly useful to the Giveaways Entered page, but with entries (and refunds) displayed in chronological order.
