Q&A Editing Thread Titles

I started to write up a platform issue for this, but realized I have questions we need community feedback on first: Who should be able to edit the title, beyond those with the Curate ability w...

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 See user activity across all communities

We want to add a network profile. Our initial thinking is around giving you a list of your communities and an overview of your activity there. After we do that, it would be possible to extend it ...

Q&A What is Codidact's policy regarding artificial intelligence-generated content?

Due to a technical limitation (working on it...) I can't mark this as a duplicate of our network gen-AI policy, but see that link. To summarize: Presenting non-original work as your own is a ...

Q&A How are tabs handled in code blocks?

To answer the question of what the behavior is: in a dev environment, I created a post with two code blocks, one containing spaces and one containing tabs. I couldn't just type the tabs into the p...

Q&A Cannot accept suggested edits to my post, because I don't have permission to change moderator-only tags

Thanks for the report. The approval failed because the edit added a moderator-only tag -- default-rules on Code Golf, like the status-* tags, can only be added by moderators. But they can be sugg...

Q&A How can we poll a community?

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

There are some additional sections visible only to admins and/or global moderators, which is why the heading exists at all. But you're right: for the vast majority of people, that's the only visib...

Q&A How can I see a list of all my deleted questions?

You can see your own deleted questions if you have the URLs, but we haven't yet implemented a way for you to see those links in the UI (like with a "deleted" tab or filter on your profile). I've e...

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 Disallowing quoting question parts in answers, rather, in comments only

Quoting is sometimes necessary for context. Sometimes an answer needs to focus on one part of the question -- one claim, one line of code, etc. Not being able to quote would impede clarity. This...
