Thanks for bringing that up, @Razetime. I'm going to remove the status-declined tag, but we'll need to flesh out this proposal, gather a community, and *talk with the TopAnswers* folks. If TA is a good solution for golfing but folks just don't know about it, that's one class of problem. If there's so... (more) |

@10Rep check out our [list of communities](https://codidact.com/) and see if any of them fit your interests -- you should be able to get to 10 rep (and more) soon if so. :-) (more) |

The vote-time override has to be there too, but in some earlier discussion some brought up the hassle of having to click it every time, so there was a request for a default. (more) |

I'm not convinced it's a good idea to advertise when somebody last visited the site. It feels kind of stalkerish. You can't tell when somebody else last looked at Twitter or Reddit or (AFAIK) Facebook, for instance. When somebody last *took an action* is public information, but just browsing feels... (more) |

@Lundin we probably need some tag-referencing syntax that includes the set name. Gotta think about this. Aside from meta being its own thing we don't expect a lot of diverse tag sets, but we'll have to see what communities want to build. (more) |

This is an interesting idea to talk about, but is a little beyond what preferences are needed. We've talked informally about customized views, filters, etc and I want to come back to that later. (more) |

We can also change the default for the category on Outdoors (for new posts) if the Outdoors community requests it. Probably nobody thought about it. (more) |

@1muflon1 we're going to be revising reputation, actually -- see [coming soon: abilities and changes to reputation](https://meta.codidact.com/articles/278234). We do have data import (so people can bring in Q&A from SE) but it's a little fragile and we want to make changes before doing more of that... (more) |

@1muflon1 glad to have you! I suspected from your scope answer that you had some decent background in the field. :-) We do not see Codidact and SE as a zero-sum game; the platforms and the communities emphasize different things, and it's quite fine to participate on both. Our Judaism community ge... (more) |

A: Site for Economics Right now we don't have a good way of identifying people who would help build a new community, so let's do this: if you are interested in helping to build this site, please leave a comment describing your level of interest (casual visitor, enthusiast, expert in this topic within the site's scope, som...

Thanks for these additions -- very helpful! This looks like a good starting point for other economics experts to weigh in on. (Oh, that reminds me -- "survey of interest" post coming right up.) (more) |

@Moshi a community can have multiple tag sets. A category within a community must use exactly one tag set. Tag sets contain only tags; they cannot contain other tag sets. (more) |
— | about 4 years ago |
| Comment | Post #278490 |
No worries @Moshi; having one place to collect it is handy, and if something *has* been brought up elsewhere (or it's big enough to call for a separate discussion), it can just be linked. (more) |

Tag sets are per-community, yes. Every community has two tag sets to start, called Main and Meta. Most of our communities that have other categories are using Main on them. Meta doesn't have meta but both Blog and Site Proposals have their own tag sets. Note that tag names are unique within tag s... (more) |

Interesting edge case -- *technically* tags *aren't* per-category but, rather, tags are part of a tag set and each category uses a tag set, *which can be shared*. So, for example, if Software Dev had a Code Review category and it used the same tag set as Q&A, then we'd probably highlight that JavaSc... (more) |

Thank you; this is helpful input. Would you perhaps be able to propose a high-level scope description -- what topics *should* be on-topic, as opposed to what shouldn't be? How do expert economists (of which set I am not a member) frame things? (more) |

Future planning: what user preferences would be useful? I am starting to think about user preferences. This won't happen for a while, but I'd like to gather input so we can start thinking about a functional design. Currently a user has a single account across our network. When you edit your description or your display name or your blog link, those ch... (more) |

A: Allow licence change when there's only one contributor I agree that authors should be able to make an immediate edit to change the license -- you post, only then notice the default license, and can't fix it. That's frustrating. The workaround of deleting and reposting is extra hassle -- and, for answers and for people who can see deleted posts, adds cl... (more) |

@OlinLathrop actually no; if you started to edit a post, then your choices are your edit state or nothing, but "go back to the way it was before I touched it" isn't an option unless you copy it out of the post history. (Or open it in an incognito window, or probably other things we shouldn't make pe... (more) |

@Dani I don't actually know what it's called, no. I just picked some words that seemed descriptive. :-) I've created a GitHub issue for this problem and somebody has already volunteered to work on it. (more) |

I would think that "cancel" should mean "throw away my draft". But I see it doesn't currently; it just cancels the *session* while preserving the state. (more) |

A: Should we have a community for Reviewing Code? Should it be a separate community, or should Software Development also support code reviews (as a separate category)? It feels like there are natural affinities there, including linking to existing content and asking followup questions, but I didn't participate in CR over there so I don't know how r... (more) |

Yeah, if it's not visible from the start, we can't expect people to know about it. I see now -- this specific example is just short enough that the horizontal scroll is evident for me. But on https://software.codidact.com/questions/277881 the code block is longer and the scroll doesn't appear from ... (more) |

A: What languages have syntax highlighting support? Codidact uses highlight.js for syntax highlighting. We support whatever languages are enabled by default in that package; we haven't restricted them. As I write this, they list 189 languages with examples on their website as well as on a table on their GitHub. Syntax highlighting is enabled for ... (more) |

| Comment | Post #278412 |
@Moshi syntax highlighting is only enabled for communities where we expect code, because (like Mathjax) it adds some rendering time to every post and we don't want to slow down sites that wouldn't benefit. Sorry about your edge case; it's certainly reasonable to ask on Meta about the syntax highligh... (more) |

Thanks for the screenshot. I'm not seeing it in Firefox 79.0 (or Chrome 84.0) but don't have ESR handy. There should definitely be a horizontal scrollbar there. (more) |

This would be controlled per-community, yes. A community that doesn't want imports wouldn't have to allow them, but some communities *do* want imports and this would let them have them. (more) |
