Dec 31, 2015 at 23:35 comment added artless noise @undo I know it is work to implement this and thanks for the link to your post. I guess that when you can show having this type of entry gives many benefits instead of just one, it is more likely to be done. I do think that rewarding a reviewer for finding plagiarism is better than punishing people for not seeing it.
Dec 31, 2015 at 16:56 comment added artless noise @Zizouz212 I was not suggesting solely for how to use a tag, but there should be information on how to use a tag... I said main content; in the OPs example, there is nothing about tags at all (also a strong indicator that it is could be copied from somewhere).
Dec 30, 2015 at 20:22 comment added Zizouz212 This is just wrong. Tag wikis aren't solely for how to use a tag, but they are for what the topic of the tag is about. Guidance on how to use a tag belongs in the excerpt. Quoting is not, and should never be an issue. Tag wikis aren't a full-out article, but they should have enough information to answer What is [tag]?, where is [tag] used? What's cool about [tag]? and so on.
Dec 30, 2015 at 16:52 comment added Undo Mod I suggested something somewhat similar a while back: meta.stackexchange.com/a/201884/215468, but that requires a structural change (read: developer time), and thus is less likely to be implemented than a policy. I'd much rather have this built into the system as you suggest, though.
