Looks like deleted comments are not really deleted, I can see them in two different ways:
- While being logged in, go to a QA page where you deleted your own comment. It still shows the comment there with a remark "Publishing Status: Deleted". Why not remove it from the HTML output?
- While not being logged in, deleted comments are not visible on the QA page. However, go to your user's profile page and click on "Comments Posted" (example), you will be able to read all comments including deleted ones.
Sorry if this was posted previously, hope this feedback helps.

Thanks for bringing this up. What we're planning to do is hide it everywhere except on the My Comments page. We'll hide their initially/by default as well but allow an option to see deleted comments.

When I posted my recent Tip/Trick (see below), I saw the message "You can add new tags to the system...". So I entered some tags, one of them being "32-bit". I don't think this was accepted, because now when I try to search for 32-bit, the search filter flips back to the previous setting.
So how do I get a new tag accepted, so I can search for it?

That was a bug we very recently fixed. It'll be fixed on the live site when Chris uploads next.

When I posted my latest Tip/Trick, I entered three tags. When I now view the Tip, I see only two. Is that because the third tag was ignored, or because there isn't room to display it?
If the latter, don't you think there should be a "See all tags" button?
|

Actually this is a bug we recently fixed. This means no one can currently add any new tags - they're simply ignored. The live site will have the fix when Chris uploads next.

After re-tagging I pressed Enter key, while still being at the end of the 'Tags' input line. Each time pressed, a <b></b> is added to the end of the question.
Hope this helps

we now can edit the first comment, not the third one. See here[^].
EDIT
and I don't trust the hyperlink behind the delete widget at all.
/EDIT
EDIT2
1. I now learned I can edit any comment I choose, however the edit box gets preloaded with an arbitrary comment from that answer, not necessarily the one I clicked for editing.
2. Although all delete widgets present the same hyperlink, I managed to delete a comment. So deletion may be okay; of course a single test is quite inconclusive.

Yikes.. thanks for reporting on those. We'll look at them shortly.

I disagree.
Take this scenario:
- open up a Q&A page, like this one[^]
- don't click anything
- hover any comment delete widget in answer1; for all of them the browser shows the same URL (makes me wonder); didn't test delete functionality any further.
- hover any comment edit widget in answer1; for all of them the browser shows the same URL (makes me wonder)
- click one comment edit widget; yes, the right text appears in the edit window;
- now click cancel
- click another comment edit widget; the previous text appears again, not the one of the comment clicked.
BTW: in the process, suddenly the URL gets an "#answer1" appended, which it shouldn't. I get a feeling you are (ab)using cookies to implement something here. I don't think that is good. IMO the normal way would be to have each widget add a different parameter to the URL, and act on that.
FYI: it also looks as if anybody can change any comment, not only his own, without this being reflected in the name(s) of the comment author. It has been like that, and I think it still is. This is a no no for me.

I only read formatted code with indentation, so please use PRE tags for code snippets.
I'm not participating in frackin' Q&A, so if you want my opinion, ask away in a real forum (or on my profile page).

We're using a very obscure and potentially evil technology called Javascript.

That URL was there from the beginning. It's an HTML anchor tag. It makes the page scroll to the answer to which you linked. If you want to go to the main (original) question, you need to use its permalink: http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/78966/Get-Enum-Data-Values.aspx[^]

Incorrect

This is called "moderation rights" that you have because of your status.

Yes, I considered that as a possibility. Makes me wonder why we get to see a URL (e.g. in the FF status bar) for a widget when it isn't a hyperlink.
Chris Maunder wrote: Incorrect
I'm glad it isn't cookie based. The fact remains I'm often getting the wrong content in the edit window, except for the first time I click such widget on a Q&A page.
Chris Maunder wrote: This is called "moderation rights"
I understand moderation; I can accept others can change text and see their name added, as in the questions and answers of Q&A itself. I do not accept others can change text that only shows my name WITHOUT their name being added, as in Q&A comments.

Take a look at the underlying HTML and you'll see.

This is out next point of investigation.

When voting on articles it provides a place to put a comment in if you give a vote of less than 3.
In the last two/three days I've just received a bunch of 1/5 votes on a collection of tips/tricks I posted, but people don't leave feedback as to why. While I don't have a problem with a deserved low-vote, it kinda sucks when you're not given the opportunity to improve the text based on someone's suggestion.
What do others think? Should you be required to leave a comment when you're low-voting someone else's work?

Recently i have noticed that on very rare occasions and apparently random times, the Lounge link in the top green menu bar right side is replaced by SoapBox.
The last time i noticed this it was on web24, i never noticed what servers were active on previous occassions.

Tis not a bug... It's a stealth feature. Try pressing your ctrl key, and peeking at the top right.

I have now moved to Sweden for love (awwww).
