A: Unviewable question with empty suggested edit This was a tricky one. That Q&A page had an answer with a pending suggested edit from a user who was later deleted. We had an unsafe check there (didn't account for nil), and it broke the page. That check is now nil-safe. (more) |

Weird (reproduced). As an admin I can see the post, so that's another difference for the investigation. The answer is the single answer on [this profile](https://writing.codidact.com/users/4876), which is a stub user for imported content, and clicking the link from the profile produces the same 500...

There hasn't been much activity in our Writing community lately, alas, but I'm not the only person watching. Other communities are more active (such as Software Development). We're trying to grow -- activity begets people and people beget activity, but it's a bit of a vicious cycle I'm afraid. (more) |

Welcome to Codidact! Could you add an example of a passage that you think is not bold enough, or one where you think you overshot? It would help us understand your goal better. Thanks. (more) |

Our problem was that we didn't want those non-breaking spaces _at all_, not that we wanted to enter them a different way. The hyphenation approach is one we hadn't found, thanks -- do you have a link for that? We've since moved off of Flare for its many annoyances, so I'm no longer in a position to... (more) |

| Answer | — |
A: How do I know when I should rewrite vs. editing my first chapter The order in which the reader sees it is not necessarily the order in which the author wrote it. You can use this to get past rewrite loops or other blockers. When writing (both fiction and non-fiction), I sometimes insert "placeholders" -- I'm going to need a scene or section here that does X, Y... (more) |

| Question | — |
Should posting on Meta affect reputation? When we launched this community, we did not yet have the ability to set different reputation grants for different categories. We've had this for a while but we failed to follow up before now, sorry. Do you want us to change posts on Meta to not award rep for upvotes or subtract it for downvotes? ... (more) |

Post edited: The imported post went through a migration, meaning the source we drew from had a name but no user account. To satisfy the spirit of the CC attribution clause, I'm adding the best info we have for the name. I wasn't able to backtrace to a user because of deletions at SE. |

This is what we ended up doing, and I used the points in this answer to make the case. (I'd been *saying* semantics is better than mere formatting, but it sounded like just a philosophical argument without the points about accessibility and agent behavior.) (more) |

@#8176 that sounds like a good topic for a meta discussion. Would you like to start it? (I might not get to it for a couple days.) At current activity levels I don't think we'd need to spin off a separate community for it; whether it should be part of main Q&A or a separate category is something t... (more) |

A: Why was this question about authors shortening their sentences closed as a duplicate? The core of both questions is: why didn't these authors simplify complex sentence structures? It's hard to see how the answers would be significantly different for semicolons versus splitting into two sentences. I'm not sure "why did these authors do X?" is on-topic on Writing anyway (I can't rec... (more) |

How can we grow this community? Codidact's communities have a lot of great content that is helping people on the Internet. Our communities are small, though, and sustainable communities depend on having lots of active, engaged participants. The folks already here are doing good work; our challenge is to find more people like you ... (more) |

What I meant is that instead of nuking the post without a trace, we could leave a "gravestone" behind to attach history to, like flags, if we wanted to. I haven't given this much thought. It just feels off that the reward for flagging spam is to lose "credit" for your flag in abilities calculations... (more) |
— | over 3 years ago |
| Comment | Post #283746 |
Yeah, sorry about that. I think when posts get completely obliterated, their associated stats go too. But flag count feeds into abilities, so we should see if we can do something about that. (more) |

| Answer | — |
A: Flags page returns 500 error when having a flag on a deleted post This was a data error -- the post you flagged was spam, we do some extra stuff when nuking spam, and something went wrong. Fixed now. You won't see the post you flagged because it's completely gone, but you won't get an error page now either. (more) |

@#53196 could you flag something that won't be deleted (like this post), to see if your flags page then shows up for you? (more) |

We actually are concerned about accessibility in our technical documentation, so thank you especially for pointing out the issue with screen readers and with CSS failing to load. The browser natively knows that the code tag is special and can do something with that absent any other inputs. (more) |

| Comment | Post #283576 |
We apparently have that CSS already. My point is that we have two different ways of producing the same formatting in the output, the code *tag* and the code *CSS class*, and I'd like to know if there are reasons to prefer one over the other. I want us to have one consistent way of doing it, not two... (more) |

| Question | — |
HTML tags versus CSS classes: is one preferred over the other for the same styling? We publish documentation online using HTML. For things like fixed parameter names and other code literals, we use `` tags. My question is about styling these in tables. On our reference pages, we list parameters in tables -- parameter name in the first column, description in another. I have bee... (more) |

Even if we (optionally) collect an email address so that further interaction is possible, we'd still need a public ticketing system of some sort to manage it. (I mean "public" not just in the sense of where it lives but in the sense of "anybody can view tickets".) What tools should we consider for ... (more) |

Thanks for suggesting the "how can we improve this page?" framing; I agree that's much better. The context here (which I wasn't clear about) is technical documentation, not marketing fluff. One type of useful comment we get is requests for specific examples. Too many of our pages show only the bas... (more) |

| Question | — |
How can we integrate a lightweight public ticketing system into our documentation feedback form? We publish a substantial documentation set online. Each page has a place at the bottom that asks "was this helpful? (Y/N)", and if the person chooses "no" we offer a textbox. We collect all this feedback internally (it feeds into our internal ticketing system, except for the spam), but to the user,... (more) |
