Comments and chat serve two very different purposes. Comments should only be for communicating with the author about modifications to the post. These should not be conversations or chit-chat. In...
With the hierarchical tags, it would be possible to have both a tag and its parent on the same post which is means that the parent tag is unneeded. An example would be a post with both an animal an...
Maybe I am the one who got downvotes (talking about the CD Meta) rather than anyone else. So do I have some idea what a downvote represents? Even sometimes I ignore the person who had downvoted (bu...
I suggested some changes to the vote counts on the front page here, and was invited to post them on general meta. Basically, I think the red/green meter is a great indicator for question quality, ...
What is preventing staff from using a second account, potentially using an anonymous alias? If they want to only express their personal opinions, then simply register a second account, without the ...
I have asked this question in in CD LL; although it is about linguistics, it also significantly deals with software development (databases organization). If I would just link to it from a session ...
There is nothing broken here, and nothing to fix or change. Anyone can make a typo, forget to finish the title, or delete a piece of it by accident. That wasn't the problem. The real problem was...
Why did we narrow ourselves down to Electrical Engineering? Why didn't we launch a Engineering community like S.E. that's broader? I trust it's self explanatory that Electrical Engineering is a str...
I liked this answer where some external program was used to keep track of interested users. Generally, you would divide interested users in three groups: Potential moderators. Core users. Casu...
No offense! I want to make Codidact better and friendlier than SE! I don't know why — I don't design website or user experience — but SE's websites looks better and makes my eyes and eyesight easie...
Unless something is clearly and directly abusive, let it go. Letting a trolling post get downvoted to oblivion is way better than any mod action of removing or otherwise censoring it. People know ...
Okay, you're probably confused. Let me explain. I use the web browser Chrome to use Codidact and would find something off about the letter "M" in the formatting box. In other words, it looks like i...
Is there any Codidact network website in the horizon to accept this question? Perhaps with some edit or conceptual change the question would be a good fit for scientific speculation? Daily life...
We can't grant the ability broadly without also granting destructive abilities, as another answer says. If any community wants more channels under its section, admins can create them -- just let u...
When Outdoors/Photography started there was a bunch of activity and upvoting and I asked a bunch of questions. However, my participation dropped about 8 months ago for several different reasons, ...
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...
status-declined I would like a way to disable Markdown by default in posts I write. The HTML formatting is richer, and it's what I use because I don't feel like having to remember yet another set...
I think we must commence the Accounting, Economics, Finance forthwith to take advantage of the current bull U.S. stock markets! As you may have seen on the news, many amateurs are piling into inves...
If a question already has 10 answers, less chance I can add anything new. Some people may like to focus on unanswered questions. Let's distinguish between what's relevant and irrelevant with text ...
There is another aspect that I don't see discussed; accepting answers has the side-effect of helping to optimize/minimize database access. For example―pretending SE is the industry definer―a potent...
Title before body in post editor There has been much discussion about the fact that the title is put after the body of the post when writing a question. I, and a number of others, find this unint...
I agree that the site proposal and validation process needs a re-do. One of the biggest problems I see right now is that everything about a new site is limited to a single "question" in the Site P...
It would be nice if hovering on a question tag, a tooltip containing the whole HTML formatted usage guidance is shown.
In comments, neither line one line two nor line one line two (with two spaces after line one) work to create a new line, the comment ends up being line one line two. This has messed ...
Suppose we have a post author A and a comment author B. Here's a simple proposal for addressing the problem. When B writes the comment, the UI offers B a checkbox to "allow A to propose resolu...
