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.

On sites like Codidact, the question often arises about what rules should be imposed on user behavior. What is a good question? What is a good answer? What behaviors are desirable and which are not...
Thanks for reporting this. All Codidact communities, including Codidact Proposals, were unavailable for most of yesterday. This has now been fixed, but you weren't able to raise this until after i...
Backstory: In my story there's this organization that is kind like of movie version of Men in Black combined with the Kingsmen where they hide in the shadows and maintain order in the world. Now t...
the reasons to close by some standards (which are or are not defined or agreed upon yet ... ) The standards for what kinds of questions are allowed on Worldbuilding will be determined by Meta ...
The Worldbuilding proposal currently includes this bullet: We would accept a fairly broad range of question types. Within reasonable limitations, questions that require focused brainstorming or ...
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...
I don't think this is realistic. How many companies still honor contracts from 1923? There's no way to guarantee that it will survive through all the possible mergers, acquisitions, bankruptcies...
Most everyday electrical wiring has two wires, usually one white and one black/red. When installing a switch, does it matter which wire I put the switch on?
I'm inclined against the business/legal aspects of this per this answer, but if there are questions specific to the "craft" part of selling, like optimal booth/display setup for a fair or protectin...
In a Codidact community there are community-specific help pages, reflecting the fact that each community is different. Over time these help pages can be modified in response to discussions on Meta....
Death is a part of life. and it's a huge part of Dwarf Fortress. I need to get everyone buried after my fort had a little fun, but people aren't putting the corpses in coffins. I tried designating ...
This is indeed a bit confusing. The trick is that you have to form a 1x1 crypt area on top of every single coffin, rather than dragging out a large crypt area. A typical layout for a "communical cr...
Usually I hear it as just fishing. This is the process of getting a wire or cable from one place to another through inaccessible (or less accessible than desired) areas. That includes hollow walls ...
Canonical URLS are highly recommended for SEO and to prevent competition between duplicate pages. I've been trying to implement this, but I'm unsure how to implement this for pages which repeat but...
How can I make my own compass out of wood? (I mean the drawing tool, not the direction-finder.) Ideally, I'd like something that: Handles diameters from 3 in to 2 ft Has minimal non-wooden pa...
I recall that back in the dark ages of web search (Altavista), search engines were naive and keywords were a huge thing in SEO. People would even create landing pages stuffed with keywords in tiny,...
When an ordinary person sells their house in the US, what happens to their tax situation? Usually, houses sell for half a million and up, and considering also regular (ie. salary) income, this woul...
The fundamentals of SEO haven't changed in two decades: Create great content. Use the words and phrases for which you want to be found in search engines. Ensure that search engines can crawl y...
This is cool, I'm curious to see how the experiment will turn out! I've thought about bringing up this kind of thing before. It's neat that the CD team had the same idea, and even developed it mor...
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.
I've mostly worked with pine wood, because it's cheap and easy to work with. I've had some projects where I finished it (polyurethane coat, sometimes a stain) and other projects where I didn't (jus...
The trick is getting everything to work together. Typical solar (without battery) installations actually work with the grid. If you generate more power than you need, the balance goes to the utilit...
A canonical URL should be the primary URL to represent ALL the content on the page. The URL that highlights a particular comment creates a variation of that page. The comment URL should never be t...
I have a cheap drill press and a set of cheap spade bits. Some of the spade bits wobble, the tip makes a circle of as much as 5 mm in diameter for some of them. Others wobble less, 1-2 mm. Since t...
