#51 [Ask Fedora] Needs a major "meta" tag cleanup
Closed: Invalid by ankursinha. Opened by ankursinha.

Closed: Invalid
Reopen Issue

The "meta" tag on AskFedora should only be used for queries about AskFedora itself. However, lots of troubleshooting questions seem to use it too. I've cleaned up the first page, but we're probably going to have to do a FAD kind of thing to clean them all up sometime.

in a point of view a Question come to my mind :

we really need to migrate meta question to the new site???

the question is too obvious why not????

if we analyze the 9 pages of META question one by one we can obtain Question like these :

  • the site doesn't work
  • how can I use the site (How I can operate in the site???
  • what is a karma?
  • I can't login
  • version of askbot
  • features/comments/bugs/announces/problems/performance/browser problem (cookies)
  • some e-mail problem
  • account problem (join two account's)/ close account
  • similarities and differences between other sites
  • Why you select askbot and not other sites?
  • Spam behaviour
  • Join question
  • an so on

all are related about askbot itself an its operation, the question is why transfer this Question???
Are these Question necesary in the new site??? of course not, Is the new site really diferent??? Yes, and diferent question will come...

so start a clean Meta in discourse
