I'd be fine with that, if we wanted to do it

@KevinReid btw, the ARRL handbooks for each of the license levels are usually pretty decent in terms of the more general body of knowledge

@KevinReid :)

Well, you can always ask the question and self-answer it, and if someone else thinks there's a better answer, they can answer it as well
Amber
Nov 20, 2013 22:52
Such as?
Amber
Nov 20, 2013 22:49
@KevinReid Consider asking the ones you figured out yourself and simply self-answering them. Knowledge sharing is a thing.

ah

CW?
Amber
Nov 19, 2013 23:22
which state did you get non-phone contact for?
Amber
Nov 19, 2013 18:16
(Given that it's essentially a list question.)
Amber
Nov 19, 2013 18:15
That seems overly broad.
Amber
Nov 18, 2013 06:53
Cool :)

@DanKD2EE @Dan thanks for the edit, typo on my part :)

(e.g. enumerating various sub-questions)
Amber
Nov 12, 2013 00:05
Yeah. I attempted to start things in sort of that direction with my comment

Heh. I was one of the sysops on the Guild Wars official wiki for a while
Amber
Nov 11, 2013 04:20
Can you make a note to that effect on the question I linked, and tag it status-completed ?
Amber
Nov 11, 2013 04:19
True. I guess it's common enough usage that, with the tag wiki, it should be okay
Amber
Nov 11, 2013 04:11
But I'm open for discussion in that regard
Amber

(See meta.ham.stackexchange.com/questions/7/tags-handheld-ht-or-both)
Amber
Nov 11, 2013 03:55
(in the interest of avoiding jargon in tags)
Amber
Nov 11, 2013 03:54
@DanKD2EE I think it'd be preferable to use handheld instead of ht as the target tag for that set
Amber
Nov 10, 2013 22:25
@Seth Tim did contact me, I said "go for it". Haven't heard anything since.

Gives about a week or so for opinions on what the first topic should be? Seems reasonable
Amber
Nov 10, 2013 20:35
/me proceeds to add tons of suggested topics
Amber
Nov 10, 2013 07:11
Granted, most of them were created by Dan. ;)

@Everyone I am not currently a mod of any SE site

The 'all-time' queue is here ham.stackexchange.com/users?tab=Voters&filter=all
Amber
Nov 7, 2013 17:55
so that may be why you think it's out of date
Amber
Nov 7, 2013 17:55
which only counts votes since the 1st of the month (it's not "past X days")
Amber
Nov 7, 2013 17:54
@MichaelKjörling btw - not that I actually care, but the link you posted for '5th most active voter' was to the 'Month' queue
Amber
Nov 7, 2013 06:29
Without any real indication of the OP's goals, it's basically just "what's your favorite thing to teach about"
Amber
Nov 7, 2013 06:28
@Seth That question is broad, but I actually voted to close it as opinion-based because I think that's an even larger problem for that particular question
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:15
I totally get your desire, though. :)
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:14
(Also there's the potential for an edit to sit around in improvement limbo forever as more and more people "improve" it - not saying that'd ever happen, but it could. :))
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:13
Etc.
Amber

Should the badge for edits be awarded for improved edits?
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:12
Similarly, when in the suggested edit queue you see the author of the edit; for improved edits should that be the original author or the improver?
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:12
Not necessarily difficult, just more complex. For instance, SE tracks stats about edits; if an "improved" edit gets rejected, should the original suggester, the improver, or both have their "rejected" stat increase?
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:07
that needs approval
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:07
since you now have an edit with two "authors"
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:07
mm. that would make the approvals handling process a lot more complex, though
Amber
Nov 6, 2013 18:04

Q: How come I cannot improve, only accept/deny, tag excerpts through suggested edits?

AbelSometimes a users suggests an edit for tag wiki excerpts that needs a bit of improvement. As in the following screenshot, I wanted to remove the typos he introduced and leave the rest of his improvement. However, I cannot "improve" the tag. The button isn't there. When I go to the tag, I cannot ...
