What's the general way of dealing with questions, that do not and cannot have a valid answer, because of for example the issue in focus is an unresolved bug (possible example here). Should one still a …

I think that the example you linked (this) is not a good example here. While I agree on that questions with simple typos should be closed (or at least reformed to something more useful if the question …

I think that this community never aimed to "gather much more people than just Mathematica.SE", as that would mean that we have to deal with questions concerning Maple, Matlab, Octave, Sage, and many o …

It would be a solution if every ping made in posts/comments/chat (something like @István) were to be replaced automatically by a hyperlink pointing to the user's profile (like @István) which (I assume …

As I have already argued against such a tag, here are a few points: Since Mathematica is an IDE for, based on and written in the Wolfram Language, this would practically require the retagging of all …

How to report probable bugs or quirks to WRI? What is the standard way to do it? Is there a known list of bugs maintained by WRI? Can we track the status of bugs anywhere?

I predict (or at least would like to see) some questions will be raised about the new platform for general symbolic modelling. A lot of us use Mathematica for modelling simple or complex systems, and …

(From R.M.'s comment) If the question is not depending on a particular matrix (e.g. the error appears with any random matrix), then please use a concise, implicit one-line definition, for example: R …

Following Sjoerd's argument, I would sugges the removal of text, as if it is understood as a style, the question should be tagged as stylesheet. If Text refers to a corpus, I would rather go for strin …

Plot multiple datasets/functions with two y axes Judging by the recurrence of this question on MathGroup, SE and perhaps SO as well, I assume there is still great interest in such constructs, and peop …

Structural manipulation of held expressions Questions that involve structural replacement/manipulation of expressions with controlled evaluation, possibly leaving some parts unevaluated. Most of these …

Garbage collection persistence 5x, clear 6x → garbage-collection or symbol-management The (nonexistent) latter two are more descriptive, and naturally incorporates both existing tags. Since the numb …

Interactivity interactive 7x → gui-construction 21x I'm not sure whether interactive is a useful tag at all: its questions are either belong to front-end manipulation or downright about gui-construc …
