Q&A Search box instead of link

We had a lot of discussion about how to approach this, keeping responsive design in mind, and decided to add the search icon but not move the search bar into the header. I admit that you don't kno...

Q&A closure-as-duplicate post notice is inaccurate

We have an issue open to fix this in the code, but I recently realized that moderators can also fix it locally: the close reasons are editable. I've edited it here on Meta to say "This question ha...

Q&A Proposal: tool for user-requested import of a single question and its answers from SE

We have a tool for doing bulk imports of questions (and answers) from SE. It has several limitations: Running it requires direct DB access. The resulting data is sometimes wrong in various ways -...

Q&A Please allow a user to permanently delete their account

The current email path (and asking you to prove you control the account, because email can be spoofed) is a stopgap. We do want to allow you to delete an account more directly. If you could make ...

Q&A Should it be possible to "react" to one's own posts?

Good question. A reaction doesn't bestow benefits (reputation, progress toward abilities, or preferential placement on the page), so in one sense reacting to your own post is harmless. On the oth...

Q&A Observations about the Incubator "emergence-effect" and deadlocking

You seem to be interpreting the incubator as the home for all questions that don't fit anywhere else, and also as a primary entry point for people new to Codidact. That's not the goal. The incuba...

Q&A How can I view my deleted posts?

I've just tested a small change that would always show your deleted posts on your own profile. Other users (without sufficient privileges) can't see them, as now. Should we always show you your d...

Q&A Error 500 on Tags page

Q&A Redundant "Posts" heading on every community in the dashboard

Q&A Allow licence change when there's only one contributor

Q&A Should we start displaying the score of a post instead of the raw votes?

If we show raw Wilson score I think we're going to see a lot of confusion and questions -- "is 0.65 good?" "what does it take to get to 0.8?" etc. Even if we explain that it's a value from 0 to 1 ...
