I have noticed that most tags lack any usage information and moreover a more detailed wiki: Tag with no usage information or detailed wiki I woul[]()d like to add the information for some of these tags, but I do not see how. I assume there is some kind of privilege for this or the function is n...

Comment Post #277981 By migration I mean taking the relevant question and the relevant answer(s). Many questions have clearly outdated answers.

Question Strategy to migrate meaningful content from Stack Overflow
I was thinking about meaningful content that can be migrated (+ improved) from Stack Overflow. These categories pop into my mind: - closed questions: we know Stack Overflow is very picky when it comes to some matters ("primarily opinion based") and some questions are easily closed despite being ve...

Answer A: Getting rid of "company tags" early on
I agree that company name tags should not be used, since tag can point to a product, framework etc. and that tag description includes the information about the owner of the product. Of course, for the rare cases when the product name includes the company name or for disambiguation reasons (cannot ...

Question Is it recommended for ASP.NET Web API actions to always include a CancellationToken?
Note: This is basically a question from Stack Overflow that was closed for a very long period of time and I fear it might get closed again as primarily opinion based. I am wondering if my ASP.NET Core 3.1+ Web API should support cancellation for all its methods or only for those which are particu...

Comment Post #277551 @Lundin - I think the wrap can be achieved by using `overflow-wrap: break-word;` or similar. You will get the text displayed on multiple lines, but no actual line breaks are there (copy-pasting it in a text editor will get a single line). A similar behaviour is happening while editing code with long ...

Question Long code lines are not wrapped
This is a small bug (cosmetic) that I have noticed while adding some code in a post: Code with very long lines not being wrapped I have artificially added some whitespace here and there, otherwise the line would have been way longer.

Answer A: How are integers interpreted in contexts that expect a date?
SQL Server uses '1900-01-01' as a "zero-point" in `DATEDIFF(dd, 0, somedate)`: select DATEDIFF(dd, 0, '1900-01-01') --> 0 select DATEDIFF(dd, 0, GETDATE()) --> 44066 days since the "zero-day" The whole expression is used to strip time from the `DATETIME` and still have it as a DATE...

Answer A: Initial List of Tags
A good start would be the most popular tags from Stack Overflow. Another approach is to start from scratch and search for tags on Stack Overflow whenever needed. Those tags are already curated and I don't think there is any need to reinvent the wheel here. Personally I do not mind of adding tag...

Comment Post #277406 @WELZ No, I think it is more readable if the numbers are written without double quotes and only strings and other types serializable to strings are using them. By "more readable" I understand here "it conveys the message better" (i.e. item is an array of integers). Btw - what JSON serializer are you ...

Answer A: Does using an Integer have any speed/performance benefits over a string in JSON
Before doing any performance testing, I think you have already noticed that the payload is significantly smaller by missing those double quotes. However, what I think is more important, especially when dealing with rather large applications and/or systems you do not own is using the appropriate da...
