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.
Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.
Supporters for a Worldbuilding community on Codidact
I would like to get a picture of the general supporters (those who are "okay" with this) for a Worldbuilding community. Supporters are not meant to be obliged to participate actively. Just interested in it and not opposed to it. See the proposal for details.

If you just want to give a quick feedback, please vote
-
[+] -->"I'm okay with that, why not" -
[-] -->"No, I do not want to see such a community here ever"

Feel free to suggest topics in the comments if you don't want to go into details but maybe have concerns a young community-to-be should consider.
For those who are planning on participating by posting Q&A on Worldbuilding later on: please add an answer with a few sentences outlining what you think a Worldbuilding community should be like. Or what you think would be most important to you. Or just what you would like to have clarification about (Scope for example). Or ... just ask by adding an answer with your question.
Also make sure to read the proposal carefully and point out anything that bothers you with it here as a dedicated answer (we can then use the comments to detail the discussion about it or decide to create a new meta post for it).
Also consider to "react" (below the title where the voting arrows usually are) on that Worldbuilding proposal to indicate your interest level.
This should get us going, to have a discussion about the outlines of the community-to-be.

There is already a mechanism for this. Let's not confuse things by creating a second one. Anyone interested in a new community selects one of several "reactions" to the original site proposal. See below:
As you can see, currently four people have already done this, including you.
There is a fundamental flaw: The proposals are not read by everyone. And also new users will not find them first thing and also do not know that the "react" function exists. As you might have noticed, not even the proposal poster has reacted on his own proposal ;)
I also do not want to know who will be a participant in the community-to-be. I really would like to know if people here are "against" such a community. And I am going to ask "why" if the downvotes keep pouring in (if I still care at that point).
Because I can guarantee you: If this community-to-be is not endorsed here, I will not waste my time in trying to establish it here.
I really cannot imagine why a larger community of Q&A sites (I mean all of Codidact here) need to express their disapproval towards something "new".
While at the same time not appreciating that there is something being in the making.
I for one would upvote any and all posts regarding a new community, wether I am interested in it or not. Just to send the signal: "Go ahead. I won't stop you. If you can do it, I'm glad to have you here".
As it stands now (+0/-3) well, you can imagine which signal this sends.
On a sidenote: I think it is rude implying I would not know about the react function, if you can see that I have "registered" there.
I was not asking "How can I express my interest". I was asking "Who is PRO Worldbuilding here".
My intent is crystall-clear I think - If not, please give me feedback on this.
