@dzaima Thinking over this, I think I will be satisfied with an option to hide votes on answers (which I believe has already been proposed before for all the network), with the addition of a language-based sorting option, so that they can both coexist. (more) |

@PeterTaylor Thank you for pointing this flaw with my answer, I haven't thought of a replacement (more) |

@Quintec I disagree with "This is one of the things that has worked well on SE", when I have more time I might expand on my view (more) |

@dzaima Fun can still be had by allowing multiple answers to a challenge. Maybe we can include a sort option to alphabetically/randomly sort the languages and sort answers in each language by byte count? or somehow still group submissions in the same language together (more) |

@moony I only meant to remove voting for code golf submissions, not for submissions to other challenge types as I hoped to convey in the parenthesis, but looks like I may have messed up my English (more) |

@dzaima I intended intra-language competition. But as you say, at times the shortest solution in a language is not as interesting as a longer one in the same language; in such cases both could coexist as separate submissions to the challenge and the author can always explain what makes that submissio...

Huh, I looked at it again and it is normal now. It was on Firefox 80.0.1 for macOS, for what it's worth. (more) |

@Sigma Computer science, sure, I expected CS to be a part of the scope on this mathematics site (more) |

Perhaps clichéd, but for the logo I suggest $P\lor\neg P$, i.e. P∨¬P, a reference to both the law of the excluded middle as well as the P vs NP problem. (more) |

I've suggested an edit adding some computer science topics; I believe CS should be a part of the scope. (more) |

I agree that we need some medical professionals. Zerotime's comment suggests expertise, let's see if there are others who join. (more) |

My opinion would be that these subjects are on-topic as long as they are relevant to human biology/health. So questions on reactions/enzymes would be on-topic if they take place in humans (more) |

'there will be the endless "What's wrong with me?" questions' → 'It should be no site where diagnoses or professional advice are offered.', thus making such questions off-topic. (more) |

I'd be somewhere in between casual user and enthusiast, tending more towards the former. (more) |

@msh210 I think the connection of linguistics to "languages" is stronger than languages to "language", but maybe that's just me. Either way, I have no strong preference for either (more) |

Regarding translation questions, if we are going to have them, are we going to accept translation attempts on arbitrarily long text? If not, what should be be the cut-off? A "paragraph", or just a sentence maximum? I'm leaning towards the latter because this can perhaps reduce low-effort homework que... (more) |

@Mithrandir24601 I assume by linking you mean having it as a part of an answer, and not letting the entire answer be the linked dictionary entry? If so sure, we can even have a "community-wiki" question with answers for each language which each give links to online dictionaries, so future questions a... (more) |

I agree with Zerotime's comment in that at minimum a translation should be provided if not entirely in English. However, as mentioned in your Area51 proposal, once a language sub-site has graduated non-English posts (for that language) should be allowed. (more) |

I am inclined to believe questions asking for resources should be on-topic. From the categories in your list, I'd say the physiology of language is definitely off-topic. I wrote a comment regarding translation on Sigma's answer (is there a way to link comments yet?). Now for identification (assuming ... (more) |

My opinion is that language learning, acquisition resources and the like would be on-topic. As for translation, I am not sure, I can see a place for questions on the translation/meaning of idioms or "untranslatable" words and the like, but straightforward dictionary definitions should not be on-topic...
