fixed internal links (apparently they were not auto-fixed during the HTTPS migration because they used protocol-relative URLs)

| Nov 2, 2014 at 4:17 | comment | added | user22815 | @MichaelT perhaps "middle" was the wrong word. Regardless, the fact is that many old questions linger on this site that are poor examples of questions under the new contents of the help center. Someone can search first (good!), find a poor quality question that was not closed and did receive positive attention (votes, answers), ask a similar question, then wonder why it is downvoted and closed. | |
| Nov 2, 2014 at 4:13 | comment | added | user40980 | @Snowman I wouldn't say middle, but it had a very disruptive bit in the early part of its history (within weeks of going to public beta). However, a fair bit of the "this is what programmers is" for people who don't participate was set down during that period. The idea that we still are that "Not Programming Related" site lingers on in quite a few minds (regularly sending questions for "this doesn't fit on Stack Overflow, try on Prorammers.SE"). Some seem to think that P.SE is the worldbuilding.SE version of SO where one can throw anything at the wall to see if it sticks. | |
| Nov 2, 2014 at 4:05 | comment | added | user22815 | Compared to other SE sites, Programmers is special. It is one of the older sites, and it has gone through iterations regarding its content. Most of the sites in this network started with highly focused goals, and have not changed course in the middle like Programmers has. That seems to make Programmers more difficult to grok for most new members. | |
| Aug 21, 2014 at 19:17 | comment | added | Chris Cirefice | @MichaelT Exactly - my first question here was closed & deleted - I went to chat to figure out why and it was fine. This post didn't exist back then :P I think every SE site should have a stickied (FAQ'd) page like this to help out new users. I don't think a lot of them do, unfortunately =/ | |
| Aug 21, 2014 at 18:11 | comment | added | user40980 | @ChrisCirefice thank you. Each StackExchange has its own nuances of understanding the various close reasons and P.SE is no exception there. These interpretations are often found scattered through meta and it can be difficult for someone to grasp all that history from just the close reason summary, and thus the attempt to pull it all together. If someone reads this early on in their P.SE asking career, they may find it possible to avoid many of the common problems and close reasons that we face and thus ask better questions from the start. | |
