  • There are two occurences of this bug.
  • 1. Under "Make sure your question is in scope" subheading, there is a paragraph like so (only raw text is shown below, and I have bolded the erroneous part):
  • > Every Codidact site has its own guidelines for what topics are able to be asked about on that site. You wouldn't want to ask about frying eggs on Writing, or bicycle maintenance on Cooking. See **$SiteName**'s scope guidelines here.
  • There is "$SiteName" on the last line, I suggest that it should be changed to "this site" or "Cooking".
  • 2. Under "Do some research" subheading, there is a paragraph like so (only raw text is shown below, and I have bolded the erroneous part):
  • > Before asking a new question, first take a look around. Has your question been asked before here on **$Sitename** Codidact? You can do a search for keywords related to your question, or take to your favorite search engine to see if your answer is already there on Codidact.
  • Notice "$Sitename" again, this time with the "n" lowercase. This should also have the same improvement made as stated above.
  • Why?

  • While it is not a critical error, but fixing it would make the page look better.

There are two occurences of this bug.
1. Under "Make sure your question is in scope" subheading, there is a paragraph like so (only raw text is shown below, and I have bolded the erroneous part):

> Every Codidact site has its own guidelines for what topics are able to be asked about on that site. You wouldn't want to ask about frying eggs on Writing, or bicycle maintenance on Cooking. See **$SiteName**'s scope guidelines here.

There is "$SiteName" on the last line, I suggest that it should be changed to "this site" or "Cooking".

2. Under "Do some research" subheading, there is a paragraph like so (only raw text is shown below, and I have bolded the erroneous part):

> Before asking a new question, first take a look around. Has your question been asked before here on **$Sitename** Codidact? You can do a search for keywords related to your question, or take to your favorite search engine to see if your answer is already there on Codidact.

Notice "$Sitename" again, this time with the "n" lowercase. This should also have the same improvement made as stated above.
