build going out now

Good morning ;)

and good night :)

hi everyone

@JarrodDixon <3

Wait you're in NYC and pushing code at 3am? Dedication

@KevinMontrose I think I've figured it out, and there may be a bug (feature?). The link I get from my inbox is this: docs-beta.stackexchange.com/documentation/proposed/changes/…, which has no edit pencil (or for that matter any icons). However, if I navigate to "C# Language" and then select the topic in question, I see icons. What's the difference between these views?

@J.D.Ray that's to a proposed change, it was approved between when it went into your inbox and when you clicked the link though. You're basically seeing what happened, if you'd clicked sooner you'd have been able to review it.

I suppose we should be removing unread notices on approval... though there's a natural race condition there.

Question for SO folks about the ability to use someone else's contribution on SO (as an answer) as source material for a topic/example on Docs.SO. I can easily foresee this happening. Read my answer to a related question. docs-beta.stackexchange.com/a/272/231 My question to you guys is whether this is being discussed at all, or is it considered a non-issue?

Non-issue in the same way using someone else's answer as a base for your own answer is. Assuming you do actually contribute something original, it's OK. Literally copy/pasting w/o any effort is probably gonna get deleted. In terms of moral behavior, depending on how much of the answer is replicated you may want to link to it.

It imagine Questions being a pretty good signal for "where current docs are deficient." Answers to those questions probably contain some general content worth pulling into docs, though the typical Answer isn't exhaustive or canonical.

People catch it in Q&A already, I don't doubt folks will notice in Docs. If it's a common occurrence, automatic checks aren't hard to do.

It should say "2x very low quality" or something.
