Anti-Cluelessness Test
Before posting in a certain category, users must pass a knowledge test relevant to that category. | |
This would reduce the number of posts which exhibit limited understanding of relevant knowledge, especially in the Other category.
A multiple-choice test, scored electronically, would be relatively easy to implement, though likely still more work than its worth.

That would kinda rule us all out, n'est pas? |
|
|
if you had that, then you wouldn't have
this. |
|
|
how would you do in this category? |
|
|
there is a halfbakery:category category
that this would fit into. you failed your
test. |
|
|
A test is also a learning opportunity-- if I had failed a hb category knowledge test, I would have learned what was relevant instead of bothering you with my cluelessness. Should this go into hb: account? hb:voting? |
|
|
[snictown], i gave you a proper category
already. look at previous anno. |
|
|
ok, moved to hb:category. I didn't put it there at first since my idea seemed mostly relevant to posting or user restriction and not specific to any one category. However, I flee from the fishbones. |
|
|
Well when it comes to Food:Cereal:Shape, I think I can hold my own, so I suppose I'll be posting all my ideas in there from now on. Hmm....fishbone shaped cereal? |

Do not flee the fishbones, it triggers their chase respone. |
