Question Should we delete or archive old imports?
When we set up this community we imported a bunch of posts from Stack Exchange. At the time, it seemed like many in the community wanted to migrate here. (This happened on some other communities too.) In practice, this has left us with a bunch of imported posts that were never claimed or impro...

Comment Post #294868 Understood -- there is a bigger issue here (and I do think it would be good to clean up some of the neglected imports), but meanwhile, this is something people who are already here can do if they want.

Answer A: What to do with all those >5y old questions?
This is a good question. Outdoors was one of the first communities we set up here during a time of turmoil on SE, and like with Writing, we bulk-imported content to help the communities to migrate without losing the content they'd invested in. But it turned out that most people didn't come here...

Updated some broken links, removed two Amazon links whose products are no long there (so no idea what to replace them with), and cleaned up some link syntax.

Answer A: It seems odd to have both "bikes" and "biking" as top-level tags
Biking currently has 26 posts and bikes has 17. Neither has a tag description. The latter is newer. This answer suggests merging them and no one's objected in the four months since it was posted. If we merge, which tag do y'all want to survive? Clicking the buttons is easy, but I don't wan...

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 downvot...

Question Where do bald eagles go at night if not in their own nests?
I've recently learned of a local eagle cam and have been enjoying watching a pair of bald eagles and their three chicks. While I don't have access to many days of video to check (the site buffers 12 hours), I have noticed a pattern the past few nights that I'm curious about. Throughout the ni...

Comment Post #285322 I agree with this approach. I think voting on it as an answer should give clear-enough indication of community support; while the question and other answers raise a variety of points, this proposed policy is clear and not mingled with other factors.

Comment Post #285317 If we could agree on "legitimate" I'd be happy with that, but it's inherently subjective so I wondered whether an objective measure would help in the meantime.

Answer A: What is our position on picture identification with no research?
I'm separating this for voting purposes (since the other answer already has votes). In another answer I proposed some options for dealing with picture-identification questions. The "mildest" of these options, in terms of disruption to the community, is: > 3. Decide they are ok in limited n...

Question 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 ...

Edit Post #284953 Initial revision almost 5 years ago
Answer A: What are some good games or activities to do on a hike?
I've been seeing more "pocket games" in recent years. Some are designed to be both small and short (play in the time it takes for your food to arrive at a restaurant, for example); others are a little longer. Board Game Geek has a user-curated list of pocket games; some of them won't meet your ...

I've pared this down a lot to focus on the question of what to do with these picture-ID questions. There are other issues entangled here and they're important too, but I'm trying to help the community focus on this core issue here. I'd like to see answers from more people.

Comment Post #284797 Were they? I don't recall the sequence; I know I've seen and downvoted some before I saw this thread, and then a recent batch came in after this thread. I think I would have voted the same way with or without this thread, but of course that's hard to know. I have not downvoted all of them, a...

Comment Post #284797 I hadn't thought about it that way, but I agree with you now that you've characterized it. Asking about a picture you have some *personal investment* in, and can provide at least some context for, is different from finding a picture on the Internet and just asking where it was taken. If a pictu...

Answer A: What is our position on picture identification with no research?
I don't think "where was this picture taken?" questions are generally helpful to the community.[^1] There are places out there that do "view from my window" type contests where players use information in the photo to try to nail down where it is, but those are challenges posted by someone who kn...
