here am i
sorry i was at the toilet
So. Whats wrong to write just a little sentence in german?
The message was senceless anyway. It wouldn't interest you!
 
@Andruseto If the message was senseless then it shouldn't be in the question. the question body is supposed to describe the question title in more depth, not to send messages to other people.
also Stack Exchange as a whole is mainly English support, while Stack Overflow now has some other languages all other sites do not and we expect user to have basic understanding of english. while on Anime and Manga we have an exception to some japanese you'll notice that most posted will be accompanied by an english translation. you'll notice on Arquade any question or answer which is not posted in English is removed

Q: What should we do with foreign language posts?

BrythanSo I'm going through the First Posts review and I find an answer that is in French. By the time that I see it, someone has edited in a Google Translate version of it. So now there's French and English. I can see a mistake in the translation (coins was translated to corners when it should have ...

 
But where is this rule standing in de FAQ?

Q: Do posts have to be in English on Stack Exchange?

JimmyOtherwise known as 必需用英语吗?(is English required?) Do I have to use English when posting a question or answer to a Stack Exchange site? Return to FAQ Index

 
"I say keep it in English. I'm not against diversity or other languages, I'm for us all being able to communicate under one. This isn't political, this isn't about smothering peoples cultures with Western ideologies. It is about being pragmatic."
last lines
 
that said, we don't mind other languages being posted but you have to translate them and if they don't add anything to the question they should be there in the first place

oh my god? .
 
and all i did was ask for the purpose of the final sentence you have edited in. since it as added in later it is supposed to add to the question but the rest of the question was in english while this extra line was not
 
Alright I think this needs to be put in proportions.
@Andruseto the site is English only. That's not our rule, that's a Stack Exchange rule.
 
I have never seen a so "uncool" site than stackexchange
we are in the web
 
The reason being we (moderators and users alike) cannot easily understand and moderate content in other languages.
 
notice that there are not only english speakers
 
10:11 PM
@Andruseto I am not a native English speaker either.
And there are other users in this site from my homeland
I speak English only.
As for the "coolness" of the site.
We don't aim being "cool", we aim at being a good resource for information
The thing that separates Stack Exchange from the rest of the info sites out there is its excellent quality standards
 
Stack Exchange is Community Driven, as such except for the moderators, regular users like you and me take part in managing the site by reviewing what has been posted. we can't do that if we can not understand the content that has been posted
 
I think it is useless to continue this disscussion
 
@Andruseto It might be.
Those are the rules of the site.
You can accept them (or perhaps, try to change them, in Anime & Manga Meta)
Or you can choose to not be a part of the community.
Either way, our stand on content which isn't English is clear, we don't allow it
במיוחד כי בלי תרגום, אתה לא יכול לדעת אם אני מקלל אותך.
