Q: Wrongly Marked Duplicate - Life can be colorful!

StandardToasterI posted this (now deleted) question a few weeks ago and originally it only asked about the Game of Life so it was closed as a duplicate of Shortest Game of Life. I changed the question to allow all life-like automata but it was closed again to my confusion. As someone said, there are distinct qu...

If you're talking about the chat feedbot, IIRC it's a system user similar to Community, so not necessarily "owned" by anyone.

Q: Clearly demarcate custom feed users as such

HodofHodSite mods can currently set feeds to automatically chat messages in their chat rooms. Additionally, they can create a special feed user account specially for this purpose. Since these users have no parent site, no rep, negative user ids, and (usually) no information other than recent chat messag...

Right now I'm think of some more ASCII art manipulation challenges.
A long time ago I had an "antialiase ASCII art" challenge.

Perhaps also a better form of antialiasing.
Is there already a challenge to convert images into ASCII art?

Q: What are the rules regarding question titles?

LilacOne of my recent questions, titled ☁ A Little Cloud ☁, was renamed in an edit to Little Chandler is sad. Draw him a cloud to cheer him up. I don't mind the title change, but I am curious as to the reasons why it was changed. Was it because of the Unicode characters? Or something else? I was hopef...

I have two lists of strings (music album titles). There are many strings common to both lists, but transformed in obvious-to-humans ways. Anyone have a tip for matching up the two lists, short of doing a levenshtein distance matrix?

Noooooo, that list of odd out-of-context question titles on Arqade has been deleted :( ... I guess I'm lucky that I still got to read it right the day before its deletion.

I wish I could opt to see deleted content more often on SE
I don't want to see it by default, which I now do on PCCG
but I do want to be able to find it everywhere
