@nhgrif, what do you think?

Hosch250

@Duga Up by 10.

I think null needs a cleanup.

Malachi

I might have to disagree with you

Quill

@Hosch250 How so?

Malachi

I think that it is a good tag. there are lots of times when you need to handle null values, it is just under used and needs a better description

Hosch250

12:08 AM

A lot of the questions that use it don't appear to use it right.

Well, it can have a review, anyway.

@Quill Programmers, I believe, doesn't use many language tags and focuses more on theory.

Quill

I haven't been there much, but I'd agree with you

Jamal

I'm just trimming functions a bit, but I may have a CM burninate it altogether. I have so far found one off-topic question among them.

Hosch250

12:20 AM

I'm fixing grammar in tags before the rep requirement goes up to 20k.

Some of them are pretty bad.

Quill

@Jamal Yeah, I thought the same things when I saw your edits

@Hosch250 That they are, and I also filled in 7 or so empty tags yesterday, so there still might be more empty tags

Hosch250

@Quill Yeah, I approved a couple edits.

> Use the python tag for all Python related questions. If you believe your question may be even more specific, you can include a version specific tag such as python-2.7.

Should we require a specific version to also be included because they aren't compatible?

Quill

@Hosch250 There's a meta discussion about that

Hosch250

OK, have a link?

Quill

@Hosch250 and yeah: print "abc":V2.7, print("abc"):V3

A: Python 2.7 wiki

If I know all versions of Python, the easiest way for me to look at all of the Python questions isn't for me to come up with some complicated search that makes sure I'm including all the possible Python tags. The easiest way is for all of the Python questions to have the python tag. The version...

Hosch250

@Quill That is the most common, AFAIK, but there is more besides.

Well, I won't remove it yet.

Quill

@Hosch250 Python 3 is more strict on indentation too

Less than 10 away from Research Assistant.

Might as well go for it - it will increase my mod candidate score.

Powershell is that an actual language... or WTF is it?

ruby was a mess.

I just accepted a few edits.

Quill

@Hosch250 I saw, thanks

Hosch250

12:51 AM

@QPaysTaxes Wasn't talking about that, the wiki was a mess.

People were using '' instead of " (that is, two single-quotes instead of one double-quote).

And lots of grammar mistakes.

Outdated information too.

It said 2.1.1 was the latest, and 2.2.2 is later.

I fixed that and the link.

Phrancis

@QPaysTaxes So far, so good!

Hosch250

@QPaysTaxes You get rep and I get review points, so don't worry.

win-win.

Phrancis

@QPaysTaxes Tag wikis cover a broad spectrum, so I suspect it's relatively high. Not sure the exact num.

Hosch250

The wiki appears to be copied from SO, but why should the style guide be removed?

Phrancis

@QPaysTaxes ^^ Sounds like YouTube comments section :D

Hosch250

The rep is 4k for now, 20k later.

But having a guide doesn't harm the wiki.

> •general background information on the subject

So, that would be the history.

Well, I approved; I hope the mods don't mind.

OK, @rolfl rejected it.

Hey @Hosch250, do you wanna fill in idisposable

Hosch250

I could.

rolfl

You show up in the top 30 answerers for the past 30 days, which gives you some cred.... but that edit is huge....

stripping off that info is too substantuial

Well that's a strong statement, and I am not sure I agree.

Mat's Mug

do we really need an idisposable tag?

rolfl

Wiki tags should have anything and everything that may help.

Mat's Mug

.net seems more appropriate.

and it's 3 questions

Quill

@Mat'sMug Feel free to meta it

Mat's Mug

@Quill sure

rolfl

@QPaysTaxes that's why you can't be trusted with wiki edits....

I can't tell.

You make a serious edit and a serious comment about too much detail, and then a joke, no, I missed the joke.

@Quill You might be SOL on lua, it's pretty arcane here on CR... maybe try SO?

rolfl

There's a LUA bounty out there, which is probably why Quill is asking

Hosch250

That is tricky - you have to reformat a lot of it, remove a bunch of dead links, remove SO-specific material...

I know, because I did several.

Quill

1:16 AM

@rolfl No, actually, I was asking about lua-table, but @Phrancis reminded me of the existence of SO

Phrancis

Is regex more of a concept or a language of its own?

rolfl

@Phrancis It's more a library, with slightly incompatible implementations in many languages

Hosch250

@Phrancis Concept.

There are many implementations.

Phrancis

Confused...

Hosch250

Pretty much all the major languages have a specific implementation to use that are similar and non-similar in various respects.

I'm tempted to shove it in with library tags then

It is, and it links ruby before java, just like Uri's profile,.

I'm cleaning up c, should I leave the SO chatroom in?

rolfl

@QPaysTaxes On Code Review, though, he's got the badges and the reputation, and your edit is what would start an edit war. If you disagree, then post a question to meta.

Hosch250

1:20 AM

I agree with that ^^

rolfl

Your single opinion is contrary to someone else's and the right way to resolve it is in meta.

Phrancis

Has anyone ever realized we have 41231 tags here?

1:22 AM

@Phrancis, can you do the tag for openquery

also SO's openquery is empty

Phrancis

For some values of "do"? What do you mean?

Hosch250

@rolfl Should I remove the SO chatroom from the CR tag wiki for c?

rolfl

@Quill DO all the links work?

@Hosch250 Typically leave them, it's a resource that works

Quill

@rolfl I really don't know, feel free to reject it

Hosch250

OK.

rolfl

@Quill If you want the "credit" for the edit, then please put in the work to do it right

@Quill Of the three questions. The first two definitely deserve the tag. The third one, well, I won't remove it, but I wouldn't have added it.
