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

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...
