I think the Tag Wiki block that Iain pointed out ( Ways to improve the quality of questions concerning some tags (tag-triggered suggestions?) ) is about the closest we're going to get on this -- Migh …

We can sort of do some of these with existing tools: A way to filter the SF site to only see questions from users with a rep higher than x A way to filter out questions if the user asking is …

Bear in mind that the purpose of the faq tag on Meta is to clarify questions about the site and how it works - It is "Frequently Asked Questions ABOUT Server Fault", Not "Questions Frequently asked ON …

This has been proposed before, and is status-declined by Jeff. Personally I agree with you, and so do the majority of folks commenting on the original Meta discussion. If you think the issue should b …

I don't think these add any value: There is no (practical) limit to the length of a question or answer: You can post a URL that's as long as you want and not hit a character limit. As such I don't th …

This sounds useful but might be too blunt an instrument -- A lot of valid/non-spam answers have links in them (I frequently link people to man pages, the O'Reilly page for "DNS and BIND", etc.). Sort …

Re: notifying people when an edit is rejected/accepted - I can certainly see the value in that. Definitely something I think should be happening (I thought it was but I could be wrong). Re: "being …

I've had this thought myself and the problem I keep coming back to is the asynchronous nature of the web: How do you determine when to release the lock for an edit that hasn't been "committed" yet? I …

It seems like an OK idea, with two flaws: Sending people email is annoying. Part of what I like about Stack Exchange is the only email I get is the stuff I sign up for - when sites start sending me …

RTFM is (was) an actual product - It is entirely conceivable that we would encounter questions about this product (as a component of the relatively common RT ticketing system), and there are parts of …

This would seem logical, except none of the trilogy (SO/SF/SU) are accessible this way -- I believe the trilogy sites are still "special", and there might be a bit more involved than just the name... …

It seems that the correct thing to do here is to retag things out of sge, not merge the two. the questions currently tagged sge are not specific to Son of Grid Engine SGE also works as an expansion …

This seems like a Bad Idea to me - at least if it's intended to replace the existing code block format. My main objection is it breaks the ability to cut and paste from a code block to your terminal: …

Short answer: Because the guy who asked the question didn't make them links. Long answer: Stack Exchange sites resize images to fit as best they can. If your image is huge and you want a link you hav …

In the name of cultural sensitivity let's update it to be the OSX Panic Screen, which helpfully says "You're screwed!" in 6 languages:
