No, it is not possible to accept answers - I believe the reasoning behind it is that one person should not influence what rises to the top, as the majority's opinion is generally more useful. Howe...
User names are less personal space than your profile description, and more in-your-face to other users. User names should therefore be more restricted than your personal profile description. User...
Currently the moderator icon is not consistent across views. See for example this post by Jirka Hanika, a moderator in Linguistics: And then see who it looks in his/her profile page: ...
I am starting to think about user preferences. This won't happen for a while, but I'd like to gather input so we can start thinking about a functional design. Currently a user has a single account...
Today I saw the following question on Software Dev (this is the beginning): (rest of post...) The title, "connect with SLOT/SIGNAL:QPushButton clicked signal not received by main window" sounds li...
feature-request status-completed I think it would be useful to display the post above each comment page so that it's easy to reference it when writing your comments. Status completed:
Any text you didn't write yourself must be set off in a quote box and attributed. I believe this is already existing policy, and applies regardless of where the quoted text came from (like anoth...
It sounds like we want to temporarily revoke a person's ability to make lots of posts when recent quality is an issue. The Participate Everywhere ability allows one to post without limit. Nominal...
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...
Our initial communities will almost certainly be groups of users from SE communities. A mature community should choose its own moderators and those are the people who can speak for the community w...
It is probably not controversial to say that if you're creating a tag, you should add a description for it. Otherwise, how will anyone else know what you intended the tag to be used for? Unfortuna...
We've just released a new feature that allows for redaction of revision histories. This feature was originally developed by @Taeir for use in his university's private instance in order to redact c...
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 ...
I don't think that visiting site A while logged in on site B should automatically create an account on site A, for at least two reasons: Doing it inflates the list of users, making it harder to g...
I've seen a pattern of certain users downvoting on site proposals, not because they are against the proposal itself but rather against the concept of launching a new community. Without calling out ...
On Code Golf: https://codegolf.codidact.com/categories/49 "Hello, World!" is listed as including 20 answers. On the actual page: https://codegolf.codidact.com/questions/279147 it says 18 answe...
Sometimes, there are issues that should not be made public (for instance, issues relating to security or privacy) and as such should not be posted here on Meta. Given the potential severity of thos...
Currently, each post is visibly tagged with a timestamp that indicates when it was posted, as well as by whom. Also, of course, posts can be edited; both by the original poster, and by other users....
Often I'm looking over a post and feel that I have what to add as a comment. But as soon as I look at the comments, I find that someone's already written exactly what I would have said. At that poi...
I'm going to give up on being nice and just put it all on the table. The pattern I've seen from you over the last months is You're combative and rude. You make assertions rather than ask questions...
We've tried something pretty much like that. Specifically, both Writing Codidact and Scientific Speculation Codidact were seeded with content from Writing SE and Worldbuilding SE, respectively. (Th...
Most of the sites are struggling to get questions and while it seems to me at least that more effort has been put into optimizing for the answerers than for the askers. To put it another way, ther...
Jon Ericson raised an interesting point in a recent Meta post: I don't understand how the help page is organized. Oh wait! It's alphabetical by the title of the article. That's why "Advanced for...
