This post contains multiple questions or has many possible indistinguishable correct answers or requires extraordinary long answers.

This question was closed; new answers can no longer be added. Users with the reopen privilege may vote to reopen this question if it has been improved or closed incorrectly.

I personally am open to the idea of treating comments here exactly as we treat posts. Since they can be quite long, we should be able to vote, suggest edits, etc, as a way of facilitating that Codidact be self-moderating and self-optimizing; to encourage people to edit and improve comments.

Cleaning = deletion? (1 comment)
Cleaning = deletion?

Eh, I'm a bit confused here. By "cleaning them up", I'd assume you mean to delete comments/archive threads. But then you go on to mention voting on comments, editing, etc, etc. There's too much in this post. You'll either have to split it up (in which case existing duplicates are around), or dive deeper into the topic, with some clarifications.
