I would like to address close messages on Q&A, especially on Codidact and even more special to the community-to-be of Worldbuilding. I approach this from a psychological point of view from a n...
I've noticed that the photography.codidact meta tagging system differs from what seems more conventional. For example, it appears that there no tags are mandatory (here at least one of [bug] [featu...
One of the benefits of Codidact is that each community can use tags in the way that best supports their community. For example, Judaism supports hierarchical tagging for references, different tagse...
The number of /.../ people reached I disagree that this would be a useful piece of information. Yes, I know that Some Other Q&A network displays such a number; relatively prominently, even. I...
A few things re. conducting Panel business: I propose codifying the number required for quorum, with "quorum" in this case meaning the number of Panel members required to be present in order to c...
I'm starting to wonder if my earlier bug report was based on a misunderstanding. If it is, though, I think the UI needs to be clarified. Anyway... Just what is expected behavior when the inbox ico...
The code for the hot post selection can be found in the app/controllers/application_controller.rb file (search for hot_questions). Eligible for Hot Posts are all Questions or Articles that have...
Codidact currently has several communities (with varying levels of activity), and several more proposals for new communities. There seems to be an effort in many of these proposals to collect users...
It seems that two things are required for a new site to be successful: A core group of domain experts that commit to being around to answer questions, and initially, to do the housekeeping. Getti...
The search function seems not to turn up good search results when sorted by relevance (the default sort). For example: Searching for community wiki on Meta Codidact turns up 12 pages of results, b...
While browsing through different sites I notices the 'Lottery' button in the header of the Posts pages. It shows next to 'Activity', 'Age', and 'Score', so it is indeed a way to order the questions...
I am noticing an event which I don't know if would be considered a bug. Do the following: Open notification tab. (when you have one or more unread notification) Click on any notification. The ...
In the search bar, when filtering by post type, a dropdown menu with all the available options is displayed: Which is nice, as I don't need to know/remember which number means what. I just choos...
I've stumbled upon links to Codidact questions on answers on SOME subreddits, but because Codidact is still little known and unsung, Redditors balk at clicking links to Codidact. OR other...
Currently, we can search for posts by a particular user by including user:unique_user_number, where the unique user number can be found from the user's profile URL. Would you find it useful to be ...
I tried to edit a post, but I received the following message saying it is over 30,000 characters. I double checked in a text editor that the number of characters is 27,835 (as shown in the Codidact...
Searching for votes:-8 does not give results with net votes -8. Instead it returns all posts, regardless of votes. Upvotes and downvotes break in exactly the same way for negative numbers, but for...
But I was surprised to see that most of those users were all 1 point users with very generic looking profiles. I expected older users to be the ones with more points. Isn't that the case? I also ch...

If a post uses a Markdown footnote, and then another post on the same page also uses a footnote (such as a question and one of its answers, or 2 answers to the same question), the footnote link goe...
In the vote summary page the votes received for each day are listed (both upvotes and downvotes), and there is also a total next to the date. This allows seeing at a glance how many votes were rece...
In the diff for tags (as seen in a suggested edit, or in the edit history), the tags before editing are shown on the left, and the tags after editing are shown on the right. However, unlike the tex...
