@Christofian May I recommend not addressing this point directly? It would be better if we had a separate blog post discussing why we would resurrect old topics, rather than covering that point directly in each article.
@MyrddinEmrys Yeah, I think quietly using the same topics would be better than bringing it to the reader's attention that X was closed (leading to Arg why evil moderators close interesting discussions, ect)
I've made the first step to categorize our ideas into colorful labels. Feel free to change the labels if you think there is something wrong with them. Add more labels if you can find a pattern.
Hi - coming at this blog thing a little way into the proceedings...but figure I do write stuff occasionally...so might be able to throw something in to the pot now and then, if a topic jumps out at me. I'll just go and add myself to the trello list
@BenBrocka I think the thing about the blog is that it's a great place for answering questions that, while interesting, aren't a good fit for the q&a. Closed questions are a source of such questions, but the general idea of the "second chance" thing doesn't just mean closed questions
@RogerAttrill awesome, the more the better
@BenBrocka @MyrddinEmrys regarding the notice thing, I think that we should say somewhere that we will be using closed questions for the blog, just so that way we don't have people saying things like "why did you close my question if there is a blog post about it"
@Christofian It is, and I think that's why it's particularly useful to UX, we've had lots of interesting "questions" that end up being too open ended to cover in the Q&A format
It's just that when you bring it up that explicitly someone's likely to bring it up as "Well X really was so awesome so why wasn't it allowed?"
