I want moderators to be able to grant or suspend abilities at fairly granular levels, because sometimes that person who's answered a ton of questions well also has a tendency to make noisy edits or...
My main area of concern would be your "Problem", point 2. You seem to have put a lot of thought into that one as well, but I have a number of questions. I'm first most interested in fixing the top ...
The problem Almost three years ago we introduced Abilities to Codidact as an improved system for granting activity-based permissions, such as allowing users who have made consistently great edit s...
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...
Hi I'm a new user and just checking out the website interface, please let me know if this is not the right place to ask this question I have a two part question actually How does joining diff...
The classic justification is of course that we need downvotes to flag bad posts, so that users can skip, filter or sort them to the last page, and moderators can prioritize them. Except we alread...
1. Limiting people who can create and vote on proposals Besides everything, this is great. First, I suggest making a limit [1] for people who can propose proposals. [2] Because before suggesting n...
After searching from the search box at the top of each page, you are taken to a search results page. This has the search box with the current search term prepopulated, ready to modify and search ag...
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...
I love the idea and hope this new approach gets implemented very soon! Some concerns: I suppose that if a proposal does not take off immediately, most of them can just sit around and wait unt...
Related: Confusing percentage on Edit Posts Ability page Currently, the best place I can find to track my progress towards the Edit ability (30 approved suggested edits with at least 95% ap...
There is a Posts page showing all the posts by a given user. Could this have a total number of posts shown at the top, similar to the front page?
Looking at the user profile on mobile, I noticed that what could be considered the user summary (the avatar, earned abilities, and statistics like number of posts) is all the way at the bottom of t...
A solution to one of the issues you mention is to ditch the annoying nanny-ware and not require a minimum number of characters in the first place. Sometimes the meaning can be quite clear in a wor...
Flagging an answer After pressing "Flag" under an answer there are 3 radio buttons to choose from: Flagging questions and answers Some changes would benefit both types of post. Changes specifi...
The notifications bug is known and we're working on a fix. (It has to be made in one repo, propagated to another via npm, and then of course deployed. I think we're waiting for the npm step at th...
Clicking on the notification icon: Doesn't do anything. I noticed this just now. It's probably been a month or more since the last time I had a notification. Back then it worked as expected (...
We fixed the inconsistency a different way. Instead of computing the numbers for all threads at page-load time, we still report the full number of comments, but when you expand the comment thread ...
Oh sorry; I'll fix that description. By "help using the sites" I think we meant issues specific to this network. You can go ahead and ask Collab meta questions on Collab; it's a small community a...
Tags should be at the top In addition to the possibility of navigating to the question from somewhere other than the questions list (which means I haven't seen the tags), I'd also find it useful t...
Previously, clicking on the icon for Notifications or Communities at the top right of the page resulted in the appropriate drop down panel appearing. Today, the panel only opens if the square area ...
Questions previews have been introduced in Codidact, which, with a considerable amount of padding between the elements inside each question "box", decreased the number of visible questions per scre...
The character limit for a comment is 1000, but the text area in which it is typed or edited is much smaller than this. Most comments are short, but some comments can have reason to be longer, and ...
