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.

several billion That's going to take some serious 'splainin. We already have too many people on this planet, and the number is still growing. You're going to have to provide a really good reason...
I for one totally like the question and I consider it to be a perfect example of "The Art" of Worldbuilding. It should be allowed as is.
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 notic...
Isn't the topic more like a mixture of Software-Development, Electrical Engineering and Biology? Maybe the Artificial Life topics can be split and merged with the broader scientific topics like: S...
I think your idea is awesome! Asking if this "belongs" on Codidact and worrying about it is - at this point in time - not the main aspect; It should not be and it cannot be. Because such things wo...
It is common nowadays for the term “colonialism” to have a default morally negative connotation. But, what really is colonialism, and is it always bad? Why/why not?
I can't provide a specific answer, but I'll try a general one based on evolutionary theory and (refuted) teleology. The body is indeed equipped to fight infections. I believe the human immune syst...
I disagree. We should allow people to ask questions that don't fall under any existing proposal. Proposal tags can always be added later, it's easy to do even in bulk (especially if an API is im...
Is it better to put site proposal descriptions in tag descriptions, rather than posts?
If Home Improvement is the only proposal we consider, I think all should be on topic. They are all important topics for people discussing home improvement. Forbidding them would undermine the usefu...
I had an idea for a character who can emit very powerful vibrations. As I thought about the possibility of how this character's vibration powers would work I eventually started to wonder how would ...
Your psionic energy make little sense as we currently understand physics. Since you're making up the rules, it can do whatever you want. You are in effect asking "When I totally ignore the laws o...
I like the proposal text and have actually very little to add. Should be a solid starting ground. One concern I have is the general thing with "malformed questions". I strongly advocate for not h...
There is one simple answer to this question: No. No, it does not fit into the current concept of Q&A. The topic of Worldbuilding is fundamentally different to probably all other possible commun...
Edit: Because the real community is not existing yet and therefore had no chance on establishing rules of how things would be handled, the following "vision statement" is not really in place (yet)....
I don't know the technical constraints on tags in terms of implementation, but as a matter of UX I think proposal are a better fit for tags. The current model of using posts (which appear similar ...
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 interest...
