whenever you guys see a "Use a more specific tag if applicable" in a tag wiki/excerpt, how do you interpret it?
 
Sam
@Braiam I'd look for a more specific tag if applicable
 
@Sam and what about the tag that says that message, would you use it if you found the one that is more applicable?
 
@Braiam I wouldn't
 
Sam
@Braiam No.

@Braiam Depends on how wiki is phrased, I guess. When I wrote this one I tried to say that a more specific tag should be used instead of this one.

@InfiniteRecursion That's not really his edit.
 
@Undo Thanks, that explains it

@Undo But he could take the 5min grace period and improve the post as well... Not that it's important :P
 
meh, when you're staring down a 1000+ flag queue you don't really worry about people's spelling
 
Hurai userscripts!
 
thinks some day Sam and Jan will stare down the 1000+ flag queue and stop worrying about spellings
 
@InfiniteRecursion does the CVQ count?
 
3:16 PM
@JanDvorak Is that a hint?
 
No. You become a mod right now!
 
Sam
@InfiniteRecursion thinks I'll never be Mod, so won't stare down the 1000+ flag queue
 
nope, it's just 40 posts @Jan, so it doesn't count
 
@Sam Famous last words :)
I love regex replacements. They're so handy! ^_^

@Unihedron there's an idea

@Undo what a coincidence. I'm currently a senior researcher there as well ...
 
It's taken from a real article, not sure where it's published though.

Apparently the article comes from a magazine about psychology.

I thought I was progressing fairly well in understanding math, then I saw math.SE's 404 page.
If I had to guess I'd say that that is a baseball team logo.

The crossing line is awkward. It's a bit better in MathJax, though still not perfect. Sample here

$ \not \exists $ ... alas, still no built-in MathJax in chat.
 
user259867
I understand that on Stack Overflow it's impractical due to the huge number of page requests. But chat does not see that level of traffic.

@bjb568 just some proper aligning, fonts... :)
 
@nicael Just curious, why post that here?
You'd probably have better turnout by posting it in the emacs room.
People that aren't actively involved in a site shouldn't really be helping chose mods if they won't have to live with them on a site.
But kudos for adding those stats to each one ;)

Isn't it 7 off/spam flags for auto deletion, right?

Back I am
 
@Sam if so, one more would do it.
@Sam assuming each downvoter also flagged it.
 
@LynnCrumbling Yup, I was the last
(but can't downvote)

An off/spam flag also dv's the post.
 
Ah, ok

It's still there...

@Unihedron Thanks!

Gone.

@Frank Awww...missed it
 
Sam
Yeah, 7 flags = boom.
 
I thought it was 6...
 
Sam
9:59 PM
Nope, first one had 6 flags but it still sat there for a few mins.
 
@Sam Maybe someone downvoted.
On GL, all the spam I flag + downvote, and it disappears at -7, so I guessed the flag count must be 6.
 
Sam
Without flagging? :O
Hmm, I dunno then.
Anyways, I'm off now. Cya laters.
 
Congrats @Frank, you're #2 in WPD :D

@ShadowWizard By nailed, I meant some sort of measure to prevent it from performing further actions (suspension, not necessarily deletion.) Isn't there something that kicks in?
 
@ShadowWizard Ah. Haven't had time for the game, much though. Who was #1?
@Andy :O
 
@LynnCrumbling only question/answer ban
 
@ShadowWizard Ah, ok... is that an automatic mechanism?
 
@Frank the bot... no surprise. No worry, when you're at it, you join with full force which is a good thing. :-D
 
10:08 PM
@ShadowWizard Dumb bot... Now I have a new goal.
 
@LynnCrumbling yup, when a user gets enough downvotes on enough posts, automatic ban is issued.

@Frank well, it's 68.5 for the bot and 64.1 for you so it should be possible ;)

@JanDvorak six actually
But it's true, so no offence taken :D
 
no. I'm the sole starrer that isn't an idiot.

@JanDvorak They know my intentions were good, so they will understand.
 
@JanDvorak prove it!
 
@ShadowWizard that I starred it, or that I'm not an idiot?

Hi, can someone with the privilege to do so make a synonym for [as.factor] tag to make it point to [r-factor], please?
I'm trying to clean up [level], [order], and a few other common [r] tags.
Also any input would be appreciated whether it's appropriate to redirect [sapply], [tapply], and [lapply] into [apply].
 
@isomorphismes Did you write a meta post first?
 
11:55 PM
@Unihedron No, is that what I should do?
I don't want to "pollute" the Q&A forum with somethign pretty small.
 
@isomorphismes Say 'forum' again and I may burst open.
And possibly die.
