Why did my question get a downvote?
Currently, there is [no consensus about whether to provide tooltips for the voting buttons](https://software.codidact.com/posts/281859) (especially the downvote one). However, the community now includes quite a lot of questions that attracted downvotes and sometimes this created long debates in comments and flagging. I would like for us to define a few answers for the "Why did my question get a downvote?". This should help us in providing a reference to a downvote reason, if one "standard" one is appropriate.
