Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Welcome to the new Proposals site! As we noted in the proposal for this change, we feel we need better way to propose and evaluate new communities for our network. A single post and people expres...
The current description says: “politics” as human social phenomena which come from humanity’s tendency for subjectivity - that people may have fundamentally different beliefs, preferences, or wi...
Would the proposed Home Improvement community be open to questions about "house stuff" more broadly? I have in mind not just home improvement, but household operations more generally. I'd been co...
Philosophy is an academic discipline and also a more informal conversational pursuit. How should the Philosophy community be structured to support and encourage answerable objective questions and ...
I want to propose a new website to be launched at Codidact. How can I formally make this proposal?
We should add proposals.codidact.com to the main site https://codidact.com/. The natural place to put it IMO would be at the end of the listed communities, just after meta.codidact.
Some Codidact communities have MathJax enabled, while others do not. Each community decides whether they want MathJax based on weighing up the advantages and disadvantages. However, Codidact Propo...
Previously in the old system, we asked around of how many that were willing to participate, posted scope proposals and declared interested with comments or voting. Now: The "Descriptions" tab...
Currently, clicking Start Proposal starts you with a blank text box. There is some general advise in the "Posting Tips" box. However, it is not clear what exactly the format should be, what points ...
If/when we accumulate many proposals, I think we might run into an issue with tags colliding. For example, suppose someone adds the base tag to Video Games ask about base building in strategy game...
Could number of characters required in the title of descriptions be lowered from 15 to 4? I would have liked to name my proposal just "Webmasters," but that is too short. It seems like the propose...
Home Improvement seems like a site where recommendation type questions might happen quite frequently, including product/component recommendations as well as tool recommendations. I think these can ...
I created the AI tech proposal primarily because I thought it would be good to have a place to discuss doing stuff with AI models rather than the details of how they are trained and how they work. ...
A healthy community requires both activity and people. The Incubator Q&A category is the place to build activity (and Meta is the place to flesh out issues that come up in doing so), but we'd ...
Please use this question for the discussion about site scope (on-/off-topic) for the Video Games site proposal. Answers below should make an argument regarding whether something should be on-topic...
When questions in Video Games are about a specific game, should we expect askers to put that game's name in the title? Or is it enough to merely tag it with that game.
The recent Tabletop Games proposal proposes a Game Review/Blog category for non-Q&A-format posts. Could we add article posts to the Incubator to test this idea out?
Once a proposal is out of the incubator and it has its own site, is the plan to move the incubator Q/A questions to it?
When SE's webmasters community was just starting out, they had a Meta discussion about what the site name should be. Although they settled on "webmasters", some of the arguments given at the time m...
Some of the posts in Incubator Q&A are tagged [Webmasters] (with a capital W) and some are tagged [webmasters] (with a lower case w). The posts with capital letter in the tag have that tag sh...
Should we tag question in the incubator Q/A with all the tags we expect them to have when used on their own site, or just with a tag for site. For example, I created the question Will an XML sitem...
There are a couple proposals in Site Proposals that haven't been launched. Should we re-create them here on this new community, or should we avoid duplicating the content and just link questions he...
Looks like the variables didn't get filled in in the proposals FAQ. I see $sitename several times in the copy:
Steam by Valve is a popular game platform and storefront. Features of Steam include: Purchasing games Running games (in fact, using Steam is mandatory games purchased on Steam) Compatibility a...
"Incubator Q&A" should be the default landing page when users go to proposals.codidact.com. The idea here is that whenever you propose a site, you can post some questions (and answers) to Incu...
Should questions about selling one's crafts be on topic? It seems common for people in the crafts community to sell their creations online (on sites like Etsy) and offline (in fairs, festivals and...
If I design a board game, can I list Tabletop Games Codidact as a place to ask any questions? Does this depend on whether the game is free or paid for? Does this depend on whether the game is open...
Is it possible to have special features enabled in the Incubator Q&A? I have tried to port one of my an answers for a question on Machine Learning, but it was written for markdown with MathJax...
Meta issue: https://meta.codidact.com/posts/288441 I uploaded an image into this question: How accurate are the browser usage statistics at caniuse.com? However it isn't showing up. When I upl...
Every question in the Incubator Q&A category should have 1 or more tags for a proposed community, so that it is clear which community or communities the question is intended for. Currently it ...
There are some acronyms related to home improvement that are very well known: OSB, MDF, PVC. Most people who know the material they refer to, know the acronym. In fact, I would guess that a lot of ...
Is economics considered on topic for "everyday science"? There are many everyday situations which seem counterintuitive from an economics perspective, but a closer look reveals interesting forces ...
I remember seeing some Finance questions on our Incubator Q&A? Where did they go? I can't find them!
Hello. I have seen that the post view isn't shown. But it would be very helpful to see post views. Please add it.
I am trying to edit the title of https://proposals.codidact.com/posts/288625 to simplify it. However, the text box for title goes red and I can't do so. How can I edit the title?
Is it better to put site proposal descriptions in tag descriptions, rather than posts?
