I don't think it's right to down vote questions just because they contain a certain word or phrase. I also don't think that questions should be edited to remove a certain word or phrase just because ...

No questions. Give us our hats.

Yes, we want hats. We like hats and we like to wear hats.

The close questions statistics don't allow you to see windows that you can adjust, but I wonder if you can use SEDE to explore more. I'll also see if a CM can run some queries and do some data ...

I think that, generally, design review type questions are on-topic. However, the problem is how broad they are. My concern for this type of question is that most of them may be more suited to a ...

To me, it seems like this is a very simple "please find me my information" request. It's best suited for a search engine. In fact, you don't even need one. From the Wake homepage, click on the "View ...

I don't think anything needs to be done. Those of us with diamonds are not required to do anything - there's a DMCA process in place for copyright holders to use to contact the employee team and have ...

For old questions (like the one linked to), there is a lock for "historical significance": This question exists because it has historical significance, but it is not considered a good, on-topic ...

I say comments should stay around forever. In fact, I think that fewer comments need to be deleted overall. Comments serve as kind of a record of how the answer developed. Sure, some of the comments ...

After 12 up / 0 down votes to this answer and no answers expressing a problem, I applied a historical lock to both questions. This should make it clear that these questions aren't acceptable here ...

No The concept of licensing questions being on-topic has a long history. When the topicality of this site was first discussed, "software law" was originally on-topic. But this definition of legal ...

Robert Harvey's answer is almost perfect. He touches on one point at several points, but I do think it needs more emphasis. On Programmers, we close questions ruthlessly and viciously. And that's a ...

I absolutely love it. Please consider leaving it in place. As a moderator, there have been significantly fewer flags asking for a moderator vote to close a question. Before, questions would get to 3 ...

The Help Center is about as authorative as it gets. Questions about software licenses are on-topic, legal assistance is off-topic. It's reasonable to assume that software developers are familiar with ...

You posted the question exclusively to promote a paper that you wrote and solicit reviews. Promoting your paper is no different than promoting your software product or a service. Treating this as spam ...

The question as it's phrased isn't good for any Stack Exchange site. You're asking for a list of techniques about learning or memorizing concepts, and there's an entire blog post on why such questions ...

I've noticed the same thing. Part of me wonders if it's a problem with the tool. The way I see it, if a question is closed, then its answers are equally suspect. I don't think the review tool should ...
