Treating it like it added unspoken rules turned out to not work: nobody but regulars knew them, so it created endless comments nagging answers to follow the secret rules (and flags when they still didn’t, and deletions when they still still didn’t, and undeletions if they were fixed, and debates about where the “good enough” line was for answers, etc.), so we stopped that, and [rules-as-written] has had to reflect question topic content like any other tag since early 2016. | |
