@DonielF Yeah, that sounds better. Toggling the children on the hierarchy page is much more intuitive to me than just hiding them and leaving it to the user to open each individual tag page. (more) |

Sort by hierarchy does exactly what id expect, it shows the tags and what children they have. (more) |

Also, I actually think that separating bug reports into it's own category would be immensely helpful - those reports tend to get buried beneath all the new stuff, since they are rarely updated, and it'll be much easier to find previous reports once search by catagory is implemented. (more) |

To be entirely honest, I wish people would just post bug reports on github as a new issue so it'd all be gathered in one place, but I can't expect everyone to have a github account. (more) |

I personally think workarounds should just be edited into the post itself, or left as comments. (more) |

I did explicitly say that it was an option to just put it in the profile text. However, the functionality of having links in the sidebar is there already, so why no extend it? (more) |

@Dani 1. I did explicitly say that it was an option. 2. I had no idea about linktree, and I doubt many people do either. Besides, using linktree just sems like a workaround, being able to do it here would be preferrable. (more) |

@Monica Cellio Oh, that sounds much better than my suggestions. I'll put that in the post. (more) |

@MonicaCellio I would agree with you, but the questions they copied over had no answers at all. When you are the only answerer for the question, I feel like it's more than just a kindness to give them at least a link to the answer. (more) |

What I was worried about is that they seemed to only be crossposting for the sake of having questions for themselves to answer here - which I still wouldn't take offence to, but they didn't bother to answer the *asker*, which just feels... (more) |

@pnuts I was less worried about how minor it was than about how confusing it was. When I saw that it was marked "completed", I was actually going to post a bug report since the change didn't show up for me (but thankfully when I was linking the post in the report I saw the clarification that it wasn'...

@Olin Lathrop are you fine with "a little delay" of a couple days? (more) |

Sorry, but I disagree. status-completed implies that users will actually see the change, and it is is confusing in the interim between the "completion" and the "deploy" times. (more) |

@pnuts Actually, the time when someone suggests an edit also shows up in user activity as "Suggested Edit" and also says whether the edit was "helpful" (accepted) or "declined". The existence of the latter information makes the "Edit" activity for when the edit was accepted kind of pointless imo (more) |

I didn't close it because I thought it was opinion based - You're free to suggest whatever you want (and posts tagged with [discussion] are naturally opinion based anyway.)

As the one who closed it, I feel like I should offer my reason. The way I read it, it was basically a rant: "an unfortunate thing for this community is that when you report some bug on Meta, you are not usually received any response". Both of the examples you listed 1. are your own, which to me was a... (more) |

In all seriousness though, your suggestions are good. I wasn't really thinking about space, since blockquotes don't add much height anyway and I basically assumed that the height would be constrained by the hiding-extra-comments mechanic that we already have. (more) |

@Olin Lathrop Well, it's sort of also a notice to users that the function is *there*, since the "draft saved" notice comes and goes really quickly and isn't really noticeable unless you look out for it. And it's also for a bit of peace of mind, instead of relying on some timer to save your work, you ... (more) |

"Since this is the only instance I have noticed this behaviour, I assume it is related to the answer content itself (contains Chinese characters)."

@pnuts i just used the term in-scope because that's what the post used, what i mean is that I believe that the scope of the questions relies too much on other disciplines, and focuses too much on them to be a good question for the site, but the questions can be reformulated to fit the site, so they a...

As for the post, I don't believe any of them are in-scope, since they rely more on physics/chemistry/biology than on mathematics. However, I don't think they are *off-topic* per-se - applied mathematics is still mathematics, after all. It's just that the proposed questions are less about the math and... (more) |

@manassehkatz You wouldn't need to store timestamps, just read/unread status, so it would just be the table of users and the list of posts they've read. Updating the lists might be a pain though. (more) |

It is listed as a fraction rather than a number because the number of members can change (such as if a member can't join the session for some reason), and so that it doesn't need to be changed if the number of panel members changes in the future. (more) |
