Suppose you come across a question that has been closed for lack of context, has high quality answers, and on its way to being deleted. Can you save the post by editing it to include more context?
Here is the deciding question:
Can the question be salvaged without changing the author's intent?
...
For example, posting basically the same thing over and over to various places, asking things you have already asked several times before and repeating claims which you have been told you to be untrue or completely irrelevant could lead quite naturally to suspicion of trolling.
@MathematicsAminPhysics You don't think that? Do you really find it hard to believe that people who see your behavior could think that it's just trolling rather than genuine questions?
If you post a message which contains nothing but a link to a post on some site, it is oneboxed. There is also some other content which is oneboxed: meta.stackexchange.com/tags/onebox/info
@MartinSleziak Moderators can undelete comments which were deleted by themselves. They can't undelete a comment deleted by the user. See here. (Not a very good reference, but it has that information there.)
This should make a bit more space in the post. (But probably - if we add many various misspellings - we'll eventually run into the character limit again.)
@Isabellatrix I have removed most of SEDE queries from the post - I left the ones which search for exactly the given word (and not things containing the word) and also those ones which search for multiple strings.
@MartinSleziak: Hi! I don't want to prolong the conversation in the other room. I just want to say that in case it seems I was unhappy with your edit of the junk post, it's not the case. I was merely puzzled, because as you know in my opinion it was a waste of effort. And I do know that you have indeed rarely cast delete-votes or undelete-votes, consistent with your statement that you prefer to let others decide.
But there is a workaroud - if you pin your message and then click on "unpin" it will remain starred. (IIRC you can do this only once, so if you do that by mistake, you need another RO to pin the message.)
So if a "newbie room" is indeed created and if we want the new users to be able to get some help there, that would automatically need increased workload for moderators.
@MartinSleziak In another thread in MSE Sara Chipps stated that members of the staff have been largely told not to participate in MSE discussion "for their own emotional well-being". This is quite alarming, if you ask me.
@user Since you have asked a few times where are the discussions on meta related to the issues raised recently in GENTLE and Math Meta Chat, I have collected at least some links.
For "If x is a sequence such that for any generalized limit we get the same value L". Do we need to use the result in part (1)? Another question, if I consider the Banach sequence which is defined by a generalized limit with shift-invariant. Is B(\{a_n\})=LIM(1/n \sum_{j=1}^n x_{j}) a Banach limit? Here is my proof:
It seems to me that one of the reasons that sometimes you and me did not understand what the other person is talking about is that you never clearly stated what you consider as your definition of a generalized limit.
@TYG Well, if you take $\LIM|_c=\lim$ as a part of the definition of generalized limit, this immediately tells you that for the every convergent sequence you have $\LIM(x)=\lim x$. So for convergent sequences there is the only possible value.
The pictures are cool :-) What do you use for making them? (I usually stick with Asymptote for most of my drawings but I'm curious what the preferences of other people are in this respect)
In case it helps - this is example of a pinned message. Look on the right in the starboard. (It will also be listed in the stars tab.)
