No repro (but different OS & browser), *but* when I just tried the image did not appear in the preview until I clicked in the post box after uploading. I don't know if that's related. (more) |

When we implement trust levels that will be explicitly allowed: even if you can't do anything else yet, you'll be able to vote and comment on stuff on your own questions. I'll see if adding that exception now, before trust levels, is straightforward. (more) |

@pnuts that was more inertia and less intention. I don't think we explicitly talked about that. (more) |

A: Why does the title come after the body when writing a question? I made that design decision. If it doesn't work we can of course change it, but the reasoning is pretty much what @pnuts said in another answer. On other sites I've seen a lot of bad titles, ones that didn't match the question that came out at the end of the question body, and I think that's becaus... (more) |

@MathPhysics ghost towns aren't a good look, for the network or for the individual site, so we'd like to have some indication that there will be activity. We're learning as we go, which is why we don't have hard-and-fast rules. I'm not very familiar with Math.SE, so I don't know how to answer your ... (more) |

@ziggurism oh wow; I had not seen [Henning's profile](https://math.stackexchange.com/users/14366/hmakholm-left-over-monica). It looks like he contributed a ton there and was looking for another place to share, so it seems worth contacting him and letting him know about Codidact. (more) |

I have spent a lot of time playing RPGs (mostly D&D through 3.5, with some misc mixed in) but don't currently play and am not up on the latest developments. I would participate in questions that are more "craft" and less rules-interpretation. If there is a blog that welcomes "craft" posts and/or re... (more) |

I would participate casually, asking the occasional question but almost certainly unable to contribute useful answers. (more) |

I'm interested as a casual user. I expect to have occasional questions (particularly about crafts and daily life in historical periods). I have some knowledge in some *very* niche areas. (more) |

A: What are the steps between community idea and community proposal? One thing that's hard for us to gauge, and is important for a new community to get off the ground, is level of interest. People might upvote a proposal out of interest ("I'd read that") or because they think it's a good idea in the abstract ("a site like that should exist") or because they want to a... (more) |

A: Should there be a community here for Linux users? Note: Please see also How should we approach our (non-developer) software community proposals?. We are trying to work out how this proposal interacts with others. (It sounds like Linux is probably different and that won't affect this in the end, but I want to make sure folks are aware.) Right no... (more) |

I'll write up a more general answer to this question later (it's something we need to document more clearly than we do), but on the specific example: we added a status-pending tag to the proposal recently to indicate it's moving forward. We haven't launched it yet because we figured syntax highligh... (more) |

Templates should always be treated as starting points -- suggested text, but not a format enforced by the UI. That way if you need to adjust the presentation for a recipe, you can. For example, sometimes it makes sense to treat a thing and its sauce as two mini-recipes within a recipe.

I did say "optional". I'm asking whether it should be available, meaning whether it's useful in some places. Where it's not useful, don't use it. (more) |

@Marco13 I don't think it's being worked on right now (though I wasn't online an hour ago when you left that comment).

| Question | — |
Do we need templates for new posts? We have some posting tips on the "ask question" (or "create post" etc) pages, and we plan to add better contextual help in the future. Another way to guide people would be with templates, a "proto-question" (or proto-blog-post or proto-challenge etc) that you get in the editor. A template could be ... (more) |

A: Should bugs and feature requests go to local Metas or Meta.Codidact? If you know that a bug or feature request is broader than just your site, it's better to post it on main meta if you can. (Things known to be specific to one site belong on the per-site meta.) Reporting bugs or requesting features on main meta should mean less duplication compared to reports on (po... (more) |

@pnuts if people only participate on one site and there seems to be a place *right there* to report issues or make requests, it will seem natural to some to do so. The downside, as you say, is that fewer people will see it or know it's already been reported -- but we shouldn't assume that all users ... (more) |

More direct interaction for the author is intentional, yes. Some things *only* the author can fix, so send that signal early so the author can address it and get an answer. Even when a site is large, any particular question probably has only a few people interacting on it, so my hope is that they'l... (more) |

@Marco13 agreed; we might need to change things with scale, and push vs pull is an important factor. I think suggested edits are important enough to be called out as I suggested, because good edits actively improve quality *and* people who get prompt responses to their contributions are more likely t...
