Neither am I opposed to duplicating the comment (the converted answer) in these rare occasions. We are displaying one thread at a time. But it probably depends on the backend implementation too. I can make up an example, if you’re interested. (more) |

@#64277 I haven’t got a preference for one approach over another. I haven’t got a real life example, because I haven’t seen an answer that needed converting into a comment, and itself had multiple comment threads. Maybe it’s a rare corner case. (more) |

@#64277 The 2nd thought was to flatten the thread structure, and combine all threads into one with the answer converted to comment on top. It would work for a majority of answer to comment conversions. Answers which get converted into comments rarely have multi-branched discussions where each bran... (more) |

@#64277 The 1st thought was to preserve threads, and add the answer converted to comment on top of each one. The answers which get converted into comments are usually short, so adding them to each thread shouldn’t clutter things too much. Maybe add an automatic explanation [apology for repeating] ...

There's the second reason why this is outdated. [Meta votes was removed from the reputation in 2023. [Cheers!]](https://electrical.codidact.com/posts/288720) Could you change the tag of the question from "bydesign" to "completed", please? (more) |

The edit approvals cover the cases when Alice edits Bob's post. Bumping is a form of review which covers the case when Bob edits his own posts, or a moderator edits Bob's post. So, bumping is a part of the edit review system. Low participation is a temporary condition. That shall pass. (more) |

@Lundin There is a reason why edits bump the posts. It helps moderate the edits. When the post is bumped, more folks will look at the edits. They can spot abuses such as editing spam into an old post, content destruction, etc. (more) |

I agree that Power User should include PC hardware. It shouldn't include all other consumer electronics, though, because that would attract a lot of... consumers, and the signal/noise would suffer. There should be a separate site for consumer electronics. (more) |

The [other bookmarking solution at that link](https://blog.elink.io/bookmarking-tools/) are for casual readers of blogs (I use Pocket from that list). Codidact patrons will have a broader range of interactions. There's a larger number of various actions one may want defer. (more) |

I'll upvote this, if the second and fifth items in the on-topic list has a provision along the lines of "or a separate site for office software [working name Office Suite]" . There will be enough questions to go around for both Power User and Office Suite. (more) |

[on a different note] As it stands right now, the Software Development site (Software.Codidact) covers anything from Excel formulas for database administration. It doesn't have a focus. It doesn't match the Software Development name. It needs a hard restart. If it were up to me, I would remake i... (more) |

I don't think that we should close the Office Suite proposal. There's will be enough questions to go around for both Office Suite and Power User. (more) |

@ArtOfCode (or @ meta mods), could you please remove the [status-bydesign] tag? Then I'll re-label the question as a feature request, and rewrite it a bit too. (more) |

Even though [for better, or for worse] a sum-total reputation won't be around for too much longer, the votes on questions and answers are going to go into calculation of [trust levels (privileges, abilities)](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/276209#answer-276675).
So, I propose a feature. Each... (more) |

@Dani I expect that the rep will be the same, and it will be equal to the rep on the main site (subject matter site). I expect that the votes on meta don't count toward reputation. For example, Alice has an answer on a subject matter site with 3 upvotes, and another answer on the meta attached to ... (more) |

I post multiple comments, if I notice that there are multiple quite separate thoughts (i.e. multiple paragraphs) in my comment. (more) |

Thanks for the link to the dump on Archive.org . I didn't know that Archive.org maintains a dump in a form that's easy to grab. It may come handy some day. (more) |

Add "engineering" to the URL, somehow, please. To the average public, "electrical" includes electrical wiring of houses and cars, which will be off--topic for Electrical Engineering. (more) |

@Monica I joined EE.SE before they installed CircuitLab. Everyone used their favorite schematic capture program and uploaded schematics as pictures. There are free and opensource schematic capture programs (LTSpice, KiCAD, ExpressPCB for example). Those who weren’t comfortable with schematic capt... (more) |
