Apr 30, 2013 at 7:18 | comment | added | Ward - Trying Codidact Mod | Votes on meta sites are different. Explanations of specific downvotes are not required, the tooltip that appears over the downvote arrow is the default explanation. There are no rude comments here - since English isn't your native language I think you are misunderstanding what's been said. Voting to close is not a delete flag. | |
Apr 30, 2013 at 6:12 | comment | added | oɔɯǝɹ | I really don't understand the way this question is handled. First i get downvotes with no explenation, then rude comments, and now a delete flag. Does anyone have the courage to tell me what i did wrong with this question? Is this question offensive in some way? Whoes toes did i step on? | |

It takes, literally, 5 seconds to open a new tab and type 90 degrees F in C into search. Do you really think this is big enough of a problem that we should attempt to educate and enforce this across the tens of thousands of users that visit here? Is googling the conversion is you can't estimate it in your head enough of a problem?

Apr 29, 2013 at 22:03 | comment | added | voretaq7 Mod | @oɔɯǝɹ The convention is "Specify your units". We expect professionals to be able to do some math. As long as you're not doing something insane like expressing distance in Angstroms you'll probably be fine, and if you do insist on using insane units someone will probably edit the question to use one of the two "standard" systems (which one depends on who sees the question first - If I see it you're getting feet, pounds, and Fahrenheit, if Iain sees it you might get Meters, Stone/Kilograms, and Celsius). | |

Apr 29, 2013 at 21:35 | comment | added | oɔɯǝɹ | Why the downvote? | |
