Comment Post #277943 @Monica Cellio Oh, that sounds much better than my suggestions. I'll put that in the post.

Question Add a [status-pending] or similar tag
My other Meta post n the usage of status tags pointed out a pretty big gap to me. Namely, we don't have a tag to signify that something is being actively worked on. While we currently use either [status-completed] (for things that are done developing but not yet launched) or [status-planned] to this ...

Comment Post #277941 @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.

Comment Post #277941 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...

Question What is the policy on importing questions by simply quoting the question over here?
Recently, three questions were "imported" from StackOverflow: https://software.codidact.com/q/277934, https://software.codidact.com/q/277930, https://software.codidact.com/q/277932 I put "imported" in quotes, because they weren't actually imported. The user just quoted the respective StackOverflo...

Comment Post #277926 @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'...

Comment Post #277924 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.

Question Should [status-completed] be used before the changes are live?
As of the time of writing, this request has the [status-completed] tag despite the change not being live yet. It is completely developed, sure, but since it is not yet deployed, should the request be marked completed?

Comment Post #277887 @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

Answer A: The site claims I made edits to post while I was offline
The timestamp for edits is when the post is changed. Notably, that means that the time does not correspond to the time when an edit was suggested. This is your edit suggestion, which was approved while you were asleep: https://electrical.codidact.com/posts/suggested-edit/11 The site should prob...

Comment Post #277890 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.) I closed it because, as the close reason says, "It's not possible to learn something from possible answers, except for the solut...

Comment Post #277890 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...

Question Add the staff badge to the user list
Currently, the user list displays the Administrator (☗) and Moderator (☖) badges on users, but not the staff badge that displays when you go to the user's profile. For consistency, could you have the staff badge show up on the user list as well?

Answer A: Second Iteration of Drafting the Codidact Arbitration & Review Panel
Does the Panel's jurisdiction extend to chat? Over on the discord server, the topic of chatroom moderation came up. If a chatroom mod does something that one could consider an abuse of power or generally incorrect, is the Panel allowed to step in? Keep in mind that although the site mods and th...

Comment Post #277875 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.

Comment Post #277868 @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 ...
