Jun 22, 2020 03:27
@Makyen Okay. Thanks.
Jun 22, 2020 03:24
@RobertLongson No, I'm thinking of a Report equivalent to the feedback guide. Like is there any specific things you want me to consider before reporting a post to SD? Any common pitfalls?
Jun 22, 2020 03:20
Is there any guidance for manually reporting an answer as spam?
Dec 31, 2019 20:44
And, it just got nuked. So I don't think Smokey can read it now...
Dec 31, 2019 20:42
Should I manually report stuff like this to Smokey, or do you not want to block that on a "system level," as I believe one the help pages worded it.
Nov 28, 2019 05:47
@Makyen Ah. That makes a lot of sense.
Nov 28, 2019 05:15
@Makyen We must be talking about 2 different questions, I think. I think the one I'm talking about only had 2 revisions, and it's not on askubuntu. I was talking about this report.
Nov 28, 2019 05:12
@Makyen Oh, I just realized the edit was older. That's interesting. Why did SD catch it now then, not before?
Nov 28, 2019 05:09
@Makyen Got you, so again, if we want to catch it, tp, otherwise fp. That's all that matters. Makes sense.
Nov 28, 2019 05:08
@Makyen It was asked 6 months ago, that's a long time to wait. I'm going to guess compromised is more likely. However, I think it's gone now, so not much I can do about it now, I think. But I will save that for the future. Thanks :D.
Nov 28, 2019 05:03
I guess vand is an alias for tp, so does it really matter?
Nov 28, 2019 04:59
What should I do with a question that seems okay, but vandalized by spam? I ask that as a) what to do with Smokey, since I found it in a SD report (Is spam or vandalism more appropriate?) and b) should I flag it as spam, roll it back, or mod flag (since it appears the OP has vandalized their own post with spam)?
Nov 28, 2019 00:38
@SmokeDetector why
Nov 28, 2019 00:20
@Makyen Also makes sense.
Nov 28, 2019 00:20
@Makyen That's kind of my thoughts. Technically, it falls into our definition of "spam," but it's not the worst type of spam. It's not like they are advertising airline tickets or something ;). Makes sense. Thanks for the answer.
Nov 28, 2019 00:04
While we're asking about spam, should this also be counted as spam?
Nov 27, 2019 08:48
@Makyen Oh, I'm sure other people have written good scripts. It's just you are particularly well-known for writing good ones ;)
Nov 27, 2019 08:43
@Makyen Noted. I should compile a list of userscripts to add if I decide to use them. Although, I could probably just add everything you've made and it'd be good :D
Nov 27, 2019 08:28
@tripleee Hmm. Weird.
Nov 27, 2019 08:21
@tripleee Could be. I ran into it in review and gave a [tag:spam] request in SOCVR, so it might have gotten taken care of too quickly for Smokey. I was still surprised it wasn't caught--to my knowledge anyway.
Nov 27, 2019 08:12
So, did you just copy and paste the text and ask Smokey to check and see what it would have done if it had seen it?
Nov 27, 2019 08:11
@tripleee Right. That makes sense.
Nov 27, 2019 08:11
@tripleee So I can't report things that are deleted? I guess that would make sense since it's not a 10k user.
Nov 27, 2019 08:02
Is this question worth reporting to Smokey, or a) has it already been caught and I didn't realize it, or b) should it normally catch stuff like this anyway since it is mostly non-Latin characters?
Nov 21, 2019 18:13
@Makyen Awesome. Thank you.

I think your edit is also still a little strongly worded, but it does improve your answer. It does, however, still see to avoid the literal question of the OP.
Nov 6, 2020 11:54
Presuming good faith/earnestness isn't a flaw in the question, it's a feature. That said, if you adding your comments here to your answer, particularly the first one, I think this answer would be salvaged.
Nov 6, 2020 11:54
This doesn't answer the question. The OP asks if Trump has explained why, not whether Trump would want to or not.
 
Nov 6, 2020 03:49
While not NAA, it doesn't directly address whether Trump has attempted to explain this. A quote, or an explanation that you searched for a quote and didn't find one, would improve this answer.

From my interactions with the mods here, History.SE has some good mods. You all seem to work very well together as a team.
Oct 26, 2020 17:09
@Semaphore Got you. Makes sense. Thanks for clarifying.
Oct 25, 2020 22:47
Okay, that makes more sense. Thanks, @MartinSleziak.
Oct 25, 2020 22:46
I didn't realize History was in Beta before.
Oct 25, 2020 22:46
Oh. This is because the site is graduating?
Oct 25, 2020 22:39
So I'm a casual member of the History SE specifically (I'm more active on other sites). I'm a little confused. I thought current moderators didn't have to nominate themselves in an election on SE. Is there something I missed?

@gerrit I'd imagine it's because the accusation here doesn't just extend to Hunter. The accusation is that Joe is corrupt, not just his son. The claim is that Joe not only knew of his son's actions, but also partook in them.
Oct 17, 2020 01:42
I mean, the polls are good, but does anyone remember the 2016 polls? There were several of them in favor of Hillary Clinton. Just because there are polls saying Biden is leading doesn't necessarily mean that's how it will shake out.
