Question Please make the "Insert image" tool's extension-checker case-insensitive.
Could you please make the "Insert image" tool treat file extensions as case-insensitive when checking for validity? When I post here on Meta, I frequently insert screenshots taken from MS Windows' Snipping Tool. For whatever reason, that tool defaults to naming files it saves as `Capture.PNG`. As ...

Question Tag contents don't reflect merge after 24 hours
On Judaism.Codidact, I merged two tags (`parashat-vayeishev` and `vayeshev`), each containing one question, into the `parshat-vayeishev` tag, which also contained one question. I didn't check, but I'm pretty sure that the three questions were distinct (i.e. it wasn't one question that was tagged wit...

Question Mod-warning a user results in suspension, even when "No" is selected for suspension
When I try to send a moderator warning to a user with no suspension, the user gets suspended. Here's me about to warn a test account with no suspension: Warning UI with "No" selected for suspension Here's what I get after I click the "Warn (or suspend) User" button, indicating that the user is...

Question Should bugs and feature requests go to local Metas or Meta.Codidact?
When users of a Codidact site come up with bugs or feature requests that are not specific to that site: - Is it preferable that they post to their local Meta or to Meta.Codidact? - Is one of these options strictly the correct practice? - If not, what are the pros and cons of each?

Answer A: Should we start displaying the score of a post instead of the raw votes?
I agree that on a list of questions, one clear indicator of fitness is most helpful. On a post's own page, it might make more sense to also show the up- and down-vote counts. Given that the "score," here, does not directly represent anything anyone can count, but rather is the result of plugging t...

Question List comments on the user profile page.
I'd like to see a history of comments posted (and for moderators, perhaps even including deleted comments) on a user's profile page. Use cases: - Allow moderators to look over the totality of a user's behavior when deciding how to respond to reports of individual instances of behavior. - All...

Answer A: Drafting the Codidact Arbitration & Review Panel
It might be worthwhile for this document to make it clear which of its provisions about moderators apply to moderators pro tempore - those appointed by the Codidact organization to help get a community started, before there's sufficient critical mass to elect permanent moderators. For example, as...

Comment Post #276645 If the panel is forced to publish every summary rejection, that could lead to abuse by a community member - sending serial spurious complaints about a moderator just to get the rejections published.

Question What's the standard way to refer to a Codidact community?
When referring to individual Codidact communities, what is the standard way of referring to them? In most cases, the name of the community is a generic term that doesn't by itself refer specifically to this community, from an external point of view. For example, how do I fill in the blank when I t...

Comment Post #276330 A couple of *shtenders* (go to Google Images for lots of examples), with open books on them, perhaps inclined a bit. See the image at http://asimplejew.blogspot.com/2007/11/question-answer-with-rabbi-ozer-bergman.html . The 'd' and 'i' of "Judaism" could be morphed into shtenders.

Comment Post #276301 @MonicaCellio I agree with you that a distinctive name for group identity's sake is important. I think it would be good for CD to create a feature at the network level for identifying communities with a generic "topic name" and optionally a more distinctive "brand name" and then define well how and w...

Comment Post #276291 @Harel13 Every Q&A community has to draw its scope boundaries somewhere. Early on in the development of MY, the community consensus was to make Judaism the religion the singular topic that would make questions be considered on-topic. The best place to discuss this in detail is Mi Yodeya's Meta.

Comment Post #276304 I think this post is really more about scope than about naming. What are the underlying assumptions of the new community about which historical or contemporary religious movements/streams/groups are included in the scope as inherently "Judaism, which aren't, and perhaps which are considered "Judaism-...

Comment Post #276301 @binyomin, as I said in this answer, "No matter what the scope is, there's no one short phrase that will precisely, unambiguously describe it. That task is too much to ask for from a name." There's definitely work to be done to define a scope, but my strong expectation is that whatever the outcome of...

Answer A: A new Judaism community
Unless the scope ends up being a big surprise, I'd suggest that there's an obvious best choice for a name: Judaism. No matter what the scope is, there's no one short phrase that will precisely, unambiguously describe it. That task is too much to ask for from a name. "Judaism" primarily refers to t...

Comment Post #276289 @ArtOfCode Makes sense. I have my brainstorming hat on right now, not my engineering hat. The Sefaria Linker can be incorporated off-the-shelf, but it involves trusting Sefaria's code to run on your site.

Comment Post #276291 This scope concept could drive a category of targeted imports from Mi Yodeya - questions that were closed as off-topic for being about Jewish history, biography, language, etc. (depending on what particularly gets included in the scope) but not the Jewish religion, are scored above some threshold, an...

Answer A: A new Judaism community
It would be great to have a built-in mechanism for automatically quoting, citing, and linking classic Jewish sources, starting with the Jewish Bible and the Talmud. Ideally, this would work by either typing a short code into MarkDown or clicking on a custom editor button to select a citation. Then, t...
