@U̶n̶i̶h̶e̶d̶r̶o̶n̶ Because it could be several. And because there isn't much room in that message. And because the content of your flags (which can be sensitive) shouldn't pop up on your screen when you least expect it.

U̶n̶i̶h̶e̶d̶r̶o̶n̶

@NormalHuman No, I mean the link itself.

user259867

There is no view for "my declined flags" as far as I know.

It links me to the flag summary, which doesn't even cover the declined flag, I'd have to dig through to find it by myself, which is stupid considering a link is supposed to be relevant. It could at least bring me to a defined page where a first declined flag is seeked.

user259867

So one would have to develop it first, before linking to it.

user259867

And you know how user interface is developed around here.

@U̶n̶i̶h̶e̶d̶r̶o̶n̶ You need multiple declined flags before you get that notice (10% over the last week, I think)

U̶n̶i̶h̶e̶d̶r̶o̶n̶

@KevinBrown Those "multiple" are buried in hundreds of helpful flags so that doesn't really change much

I bet it's some VLQ flags that shouldn't have been declined to begin with.

That... probably shouldn't apply to usernames.

Kevin Brown

@U̶n̶i̶h̶e̶d̶r̶o̶n̶ I get that. And it doesn't seem like an issue until you get a new batch of declined flags and have to wait a week

user259867

Username checks are really ineffective except for offensive, rsorder and babyliss... Luckily not too many false positives either, but this particular regex is problematic .

@KevinBrown Well, it is an issue because it makes me curious and I can't find it without going through too much effort that isn't worth (nothing I can do about declined flags).

This user's most recent posts are all copy pastes to another answer. I can't downvote all of them without triggering targetted voting: stackoverflow.com/users/1290329/user1290329?tab=answers I could use help on the low quality flags though.

Bart

@Andy flag?

Kevin Brown

Custom flags are designed for cases like that

Andy

@KevinBrown Why? There are 4-5 low quality flags. Mark them low quality and let them go through the queue. The mods aren't needed for that

Bart

Please don't post copies of this answer around. First of all it is link-only, which is not a good answer. Second of all, if that answer answers all these questions, make sure the questions aren't duplicates of a canonical source to begin with. If they are, they should be closed and not answered. — Bart 34 secs ago

@Bart The lesson learned is to delete rows from the database faster next time.

Q: Is it possible to horizontally center an image on Stack Exchange sites?

Since we can only use Markdown and a limited subset of HTML/CSS is it possible to center an image, or any block element for that matter, on the Stack Exchange sites?

discussion markdown images

Should DevDoodle support centering?

Maybe just of images?

U̶n̶i̶h̶e̶d̶r̶o̶n̶

Maybe change the ![]() to !>[]() for right, !=[]() for centering, !<[]() for left, and ![]() for regular?

bjb568

Regular is left.

@NormalHuman lol thanks... I'm thrilled! ;)
