@JanDvorak well I partly reapplied it, but I think I properly need to draw the line on what kind of edits to my questions I want and what kind I don't want...
It's not nice If he removes 4 / 5 tags from my question...
@Vogel612 either he will give up and move on, or keep fighting then a moderator will step in and decide what to do. IMO you should not give up just because the other user has more rep.
Dear @BalusC please provide more reasoning when reapplying an Edit I rolled back. I appreciate, that you are interested in question quality, but it seems that we have a different understanding of how tagging should work :( If you reapply the same edits again, without any further reasoning I will flag this for moderator attention. If you want to discuss this I can be found in Stack Overflow Chat ;) — Vogel61231 secs ago
@InfiniteRecursion please read the question. I am going through the whole hassle to have it play nice with jsf and thus was thinking the tagging is appropriate...
I believe that his expertise may be helpful in answering the question, not because he also knows other things, but specifically because he is a jsf-expert.
@ShadowWizard Actually, it worked pretty well. Haven't done much to be honest - just displaying data from a json web service (hosted on SharePoint too) in a web part.
It allowed me to develop an "app" (== a solution that doesn't have anything to do with SP and probably should have been deployed somewhere else but the sales department managed to sold as "SharePoint enabled" because "we will cut times and costs") as a single web part with multiple views, no postbacks.
@ShadowWizard still new to it. Used views with routing and some templates for pop-ups.
@balpha Are you developer folks willing to run queries (on an occasional basis) that aren't possible in SEDE for privacy reasons? This relates to my meta question (meta.stackexchange.com/questions/239991/…). I want to see how many people we've got who are afraid of pressing the down-vote button on answers.
But it doesn't seem to be possible to run such a query in SEDE, due to understandable anonymisation of the voting table.
@Vogel612 Perhaps my question needs some further back story. I wanted to raise the question of whether answer down-votes should be free, provided you haven't supplied an answer yourself. The goal behind the query was to provide some sort of proof that lots of people avoid down-voting answers because they are scared of the -1.
The idea is - if they are willing to down-vote questions, then they are active in the field of moderation. But if they never down-vote answers, it might indicate people are reluctant to lose rep.
Clearly, the stats wouldn't prove any causality. But it would be interesting to see the numbers.
Please can we change the way we display the vote break-down on user profiles. At present we have a breakdown giving four vote total figures like this:
I propose this be changed to a contingency table/cross tab like this:
This would mean we are not displaying any more information or using mor...
@Sam Yep, and I still haven't compiled it successfully lol, VS keeps breaking when I do that. It wants me to give it 5 hours to repair it, then upon recompilation it does that "repair me" thing.
@Stijn well, the thing is that when having a form in a template, form validation is borked. $scope.formName.$valid always returns "true" even when required fields are empty.
The funny thing is, the browser still throw the "this field is required" messages.
@Duncan In general, sure -- if you can make a good case for it. The community team runs queries all the time. What I miss from your question in particular is the "what would we do with the knowledge". If the question were of the form "I think we have a problem X, I suggest solution Y. Maybe someone with access could check whether the problem really exit?", I think it'd be more well-received than it's current "I'm curious about X, could someone find out please?" form
@hichris123 I might have found a reason why it didn't catch that phone number (if it was not a glitch). We should check the phone number only, not the rest of the title. (Sometimes it works for the full title, but sometimes it does not)
@balpha Thanks for the feedback. I was reluctant to put too much info into the question, since I was fearful of that question becoming the question and garnering all sorts of debate over what I was proposing.
But perhaps I didn't provide enough, even for that purpose.
@balpha What would be the correct way to ask this from the community team? Should I update my question with more details and a query or am I best to email about this kind of thing?
@Duncan Definitely keep this public, there's no reason to put this into an email. And the query itself isn't the interesting part, it's the details on what you're trying to learn/confirm and what the implications of it being confirmed (or not) would be. It shouldn't be about running a query, it should be about a potential problem that you anecdotally obeserved and what should be done about it. If the data doesn't confirm the problem, all the better.
@balpha has the Too Many Requests block become more strict recently? I've hit it in the past when opening 10-15 tabs at once (e.g. while browsing a user's profile) but recently I get it when opening a couple of tabs at once mixed with regular SO browsing.
@Stijn not that I know of, but is it possible you have disabled caching in your browser? I'm seing tons of repeated requests for the same static files (images, JS, etc.) in the logs for you
while looking for Bart clones I might have found real socks. This and this might be the same person. good chance he's upvoting himself. any SO mod can check it? @animuson? @ThiefMaster?
