Comment Post #276665 I'll edit the responses into the post later (marking them as reply), as I think this is too long to be considered in a comment thread.

Comment Post #276645 @msh210 Yeah, something like such a separate list of summary rejections should be possible if they can be automatized (depends on the management systems we'll end up using). I am not sure, whether we should publish the names of users with unsuccessful appeals, but this can be done in general. I'll re...

Comment Post #276661 Regarding where the election will take place: It's quite likely, that this will happen on Codidact Meta, but this will need to be clarified (also with a lawyer), because we'll use the same way for the board of our organization and the panel.

Comment Post #276661 To the "community" question: It means the whole network. Community should here be understood as the "opposite" of Codidact team. To the second question: The discussions will be private, but the decision will be published in most cases (with private data redacted). How exactly this is going to be impl...

Comment Post #276645 I don't think, the publication of summary rejections is really that helpful, because it will at most be `XXXX vs Site Moderators -> Summarily rejected as spam`. (XXXX = redacted). If you want to find out, at which rate summary rejections happen, we can do that. It would be contrary to the principle o...

Comment Post #276645 For the second thing -- summary decisions -- it's hard to strike a balance here. We want the panel to be accountable and transparent and prevent any kind of possible abuse. However, we also want to prevent malicious users from blocking the panel with nefarious appeals or to flood the publication list...

Comment Post #276645 This post contains two things: First of all, the reasons for the decision should already be published. I'd consider the explanation (Art. 24) part of te decision; but I can also add a "and the explanations" in Art. 22 if you think, that it isn't clear enough.

Comment Post #276658 And I'd hope, that we don't need to conduct moderator review for now, until we have a panel. However, it'd certainly involve much talking with the mod, rather than removing the status.

Comment Post #276658 I'd think the best solution would be to apply the process regardless of pro tempore status. Probably the only difference would be, who can then choose a replacement.

Comment Post #276647 While this is not exactly ideal, there is a small badge in the hamburger menu "[1] Flags". It isn't really good readable, though, so this should be changed and a notice should be added to the menu button.

Comment Post #276644 I'd see a warning as a "yellow card", which means, that a second warning-worthy misbehaviour results in a stricter penalty. However, we could change "shall not have use of" to "should not use", then the intent is clear, but the panel is still free to decide.

Comment Post #276642 @Zerotime we'll create a legal entity at some point. It will have some kind of "board of trustees" (=Codidact board), which should contain members from the community (=comunity board positions (as in board positions for/by the community)). The board members will appoint some volunteers, which will f...

Question Drafting the Codidact Arbitration & Review Panel
Since Codidact was founded, we have had one rule leading our path every step of the way. It's the rule that community comes first. That the Codidact "staff" shouldn’t overrule the community, but could be overruled by it. In any community, acts of moderation should be rare. And even rarer is the ne...

Comment Post #276640 I'd say Cooking Codidact or Cooking.CD. Of course, the Cooking community on Codidact would also go, but is a bit lengthy IMO. You can also consider "the Cooking community" or "this community" (especially in a FAQ)

Answer A: How can an SE refugee help fix encoding problems?
tl,dr: You need'nt worry about this yet. When we started this project, it was decided, that we wouldn't want a single "reputation" number, but rather finer more specific numbers, such as for example something like "edit helpfulness reate", and a broad concept of "trust levels". However, for som...

Comment Post #276538 Yeah. It's been on my TODO list for a while, and the neccessary code for it has been written already, but there are a few things I'll need to check before I can deploy that and that was delayed. I'll try to get to this today.

Comment Post #276547 This seems sensible. As long as there is no spam staying around (which the Codidact team can handle for now), we should let them. I definitely didn't intend to "go around and kill communities" :P, at least not without much discussion and many "Why is nobody here?" posts

Question What should happen with inactive communities?
The level of activity of the communities vary. Some are more active than others, which isn't exactly a problem. However, I'm a bit worried when a community becomes significantly less active than others and there is little original content being created by the group proposing it[^1]. This can mean ...

Answer A: Bug Reports category
I'd disagree here, because I think this is not, how categories should be used. First of all, there shouldn't be too many categories, because the UI becomes confusing, possibly problematic on mobile and it becomes IMO harder to find stuff. This can already happen sometimes at 3-5 categories, but it...

Comment Post #276534 I think I know, what's the issue: When you click the show more comments link, the comments html is newly generated on the server and send to the client, hence Sefaria links are not applied anymore (they are applied on the client-side). A possible bugfix could be re-running Sefaria on comment load, bu...

Answer A: "Tour" for new users?
So... expanding from my comment from yesterday, here are my thoughts regarding the "tour". I think we had the proposal for an interactive "learn the site" tour on the (now deprecated) forum. This doesn't mean a page, where you scroll down and see the different components gliding into the screen wi...

Comment Post #276187 Well... that is definitely not supposed to happen. Shouldn't be a hard fix, though. Just adding a `max-height: 400px` and an `overflow: scroll` css property.

Comment Post #275959 You can blame me for this bug. When I started working on suggested edits (which are now available BTW. Yay!), there were no articles yet. At that time, it made sense to say, that a post is either an question or an answer. When I added support for them, I wrongly kept some of these assumptions (as you...

Comment Post #275935 "About Codidact" is more about the software/platform, than the specific site. You can change the Category for help entries, which will change, the title of the box. You should also be able to rename help topics and to add categories (simply choose a new name for the category).

Comment Post #75053 You might be interested in this [Speculative Science proposal](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/74823), which is from other (ex-)WB members, but aims for a smaller scope (more scientific = less subjective posts AFAICT). It also looks like the proposal being able to launch quite soon, so you might ...
