Re: Improving disclosure of quality for Catagorized Q&A Answers

I know that when I was working on the RAT I had a lot of issues arise from Q&A related nodes. IMO it might be worth doing a reassesment of how these nodes work and restrcuture them to be easier to deal with.

Personally I question the value of having Q&A work differently from the rest of the site. The section is probably best served by using the same internal structure (ie regular root nodes and notes like everywhere else), with a (configurably?) forced note depth of 1 when you look at the root node. Effectively that would work like the section does now: you see a question and only its direct answers. The major difference is that there would automatically be a some notes below your chosen depth indicator where there are replies to an answer. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

And where does the category level fit into that? (Right now, categories have questions have answers have notes).	[reply]

It doesn't change at all. My proposal is categories have questions have notes. I simply got rid of the separate answers by having questions display their notes with a forced note depth of 1. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]
