Q: Is it OK to edit and cut down an overly verbose question to try and make it a more "canonical" question?

I landed upon a question about how to convert CP1251 to UTF-8 in Python, which was helpful to me, but it was overly verbose, taking a screen to ask a question that should have been 1-2 sentences. So I edited it, with the intention to make it better quality from the POV of a Google searcher landi...

discussion edits

However, that question would more accurately be titled: Is it ok to take a big question, remove important details, and condense it to 2 lines?

Furthermore, it asks about a very specific case. I'm asking about the practice in general, including a more appropriate example.

@FinalContest you might want to explain your downvote ;-)

If there's no table or column for it, you probably can't. Try checking for votes with null userID

I left a comment on that post. Will you both stop argueing? You both are correct. There is no wrong in here.

Final Contest

@rene: he is surprised why ignore him when he is full of such comments. I have not seen many people downvoting bugreports. It is clearly about persons, not objectives and such people should have no place on this infrastructure IMHO.

I will not argue with him, I will just keep ignoring him is all.

and I flagged his comment as non-constructive of course.

hoping you doing so, too, as you seem to be unhappy about such comment, too.

Shadow Wizard

@FinalContest I upvoted your bug report, looks like something went wrong with that specific item. We can't know what and why, only a dev can, and good chance it can't be reproduced.

@TheLittleNaruto which messages?

this one

I would have flagged that, too.

because upvote is more proper once you have enough reputation.

it was flagged too

Final Contest

8:42 AM

why?

Shadow Wizard

@TheLittleNaruto it's veeeery offensive

I dont know

someone keeps flagging my messages

balpha

I seem to be missing something -- what exactly was the problem with @FinalContest's bug report?

TheLittleNaruto

and I donot have any idea

Final Contest

maybe that someone should get suspension.

provided that it was a thank you chat message with bad word choice, but smiley, I do not understand.

TheLittleNaruto

8:43 AM

Can we know ?

Final Contest

flag the person for moderator attention and explain.

ah, you cannot know.

Final Contest

@balpha: that it was submitted by me, I think.

@balpha it got a downvote so he deleted it.

the difference is that some people do not care (Hans, Your Common Sense, etc) and some do (me, H2CO3, etc), but yeah, that is my explanation to myself.

Final Contest

@TheLittleNaruto: I will flag your thank you here, it is offensive! J/k.

@balpha see above, one downvote was due to not being able to reproduce

@TheLittleNaruto: if it continues, talk to a moderator.

for which I've already apologised

TheLittleNaruto

@FinalContest Okay :)

8:50 AM

dunno about the other downvote, @balpha, but that user does have a habit of, well, alienating people.

@JanDvorak not you, the OP of the deleted bug report :/

Oh. Thanks :-)

be that as it may, that's not a reason to downvote a valid bug report

@balpha I know. Most of us here know. But we can't force our opinions on others or tell anyone how to vote. Can we?

in this case, there could be a potential bugreport loss, but I do not care that much as long as SE does not care about addressing this IMHO systematic issue, either.

@balpha: this, however, does not change the fact that I have given up posting bugreports. I do not want to start my Monday morning (or any for that matter) again with annoyance when I am trying to help.

balpha

@ShadowWizard there were a few DB timeouts around that time, which was the immediate cause (and the reason for the 30 second delay). But the main problem here is that the skip/edit/etc. controls aren't re-enabled after an error

@Final regarding the whole unexplained downvotes on good answers, even I get those every once in a while and I'm a relatively low-rep user. They annoy me too but I just try to move on, it's best to ignore it. In the end, you've helped people and that's what counts :)

Final Contest

@Stijn: well, maybe for you, that is what counts, and I appreciate that. My expectation (hope?) is constructive atmosphere, though.

@Cupcake: :D

@Stijn: I think it is cultural and/or preference thing. I have been working in projects for years after years, and it had not really happened that over a codereview or mailing list discussion that "your stuff sux, that is about it", or if it had happened, it was clear that it has no any value.

and I did not start picking these up after 5-10 downvotes, but after about 30-50.

Stijn

@FinalContest I think it's just the internet being the internet

Final Contest

codereview and mailing list have been over the internet, too. My point is that SE provides a platform for this potentially non-constructive atmosphere. You can call me a troll, an unwelcoming person, etc, but that remains my sincere opinion about it.

I could also tell people "accept such opinions, and just move on" ;-)

@Braiam flag/close it, off-topic

I used the network/infrastructure reason but on second thought a custom reason would be useful here, it's caused by downtime of a third party service, useless question.

@hichris123 stop flagging, reviewing, closing, and anything that implies moderation and answer questions D:

@Braiam That... doesn't work though. Try browsing android and you'd see. I click on a question to answer it -> edit/close/downvote for a good chunk of them.

@hichris123 friends don't tell friends to learn android... or java for what matters

hichris123

@JanDvorak yeah, pretty much. a lot of crappy questions.

@Braiam What??? Android is awesome!

The reason why it gets so much crap is because it's popular. :P

Braiam

@hichris123 that is so wrong in many ways...
