Why is meta reputation linked to Q&A reputation?
Related: A vote in the meta category for the EE site reflected in my reputation. Is that a bug?
Suppose I participate in Meta and Q&A Software Codidact, and a Meta answer of mine is downvoted. Fine, but should this reflect in my Q&A reputation? People will see this negative rep on my profile next to my technical Q&A answer and assume I don't know what I'm talking about. I think the ability to ask and answer on Meta is distinct from the ability to ask and answer on Q&A.

This is something that is currently being discussed on each community. Communities are able to decide for themselves whether they want Meta to affect reputation.
L&L announcement by Monica (copied to all other communities)
When we launched this community, we did not yet have the ability to set different reputation grants for different categories. We've had this for a while but we failed to follow up before now, sorry.
Do you want us to change posts on Meta to not award rep for upvotes or subtract it for downvotes? This change would be retroactive, though not immediately -- the next time a certain custodial script runs, reputation levels would be adjusted to remove rep gained from Meta.
