Make it clearer WHY so called 'homework questions' are not allowed and maybe come up with a different terminology. I see so many questioners get annoyed and say "But it's not homeowrk!!!" - it may not literally be homework, but it's a trivial question that you are just asking someone else to churn through for you. On the other hand, more and more lazy questioners are just hiding the fact that it's a homework question. Confusingly, of course, there is the help-vampire/point chaser feedback that encourages this whole mess. Furthermore, the rules that require MVC (minimal, verifiable, complete) examples don't work in all areas. The [algorithm] tag, for example tends to attract speculative questions where the questioner naturally hasn't written any code because they don't have an algorithm yet! Finally, it might be nice to be able to combine answers to make one comprehensive one where two different answerers have different parts of the answer. |
