Welcome to the Judaism community on Codidact!
Will you help us build our community of learners? Drop into our study hall, ask questions, help others with answers to their questions, share a d'var torah if you're so inclined, invite your friends, and join us in building this community together. Not an ask-the-rabbi service, just people at all levels learning together.
Discussions and feedback about the site itself in Q&A format.

Should we allow users to write questions in non-English languages? Should we allow users to write questions in specifically Hebrew or other Jewish languages like Judeo-Aramaic, Yiddish, and Ladino...
I miss the post view counter. I really loved to see how much impact a question or an answer has.
I really don't like the vote count representation. Positive count, negative count AND a bar? That feels messy to me. If we want to differ a post with zero votes, and a post with 10 upvotes and 10 d...
On Mi Yodeya, questions about Hebrew that aren't clearly about Judaism are considered out of scope. Should that be the case here, or should questions about the Hebrew language be ipso facto on-topi...
We need to work on defining our mission. There are a bunch of questions to resolve about particular scope boundaries. (The first is on language questions, and more should come.), and we also need t...
What is our stance on creating new tags? On MY it was preferable not to create new ones, but what about here?
There are a bunch of new tags being added, and many of them are synonyms of each other. This happens because some people put a tag of "prayer" and some put the Hebrew word "tefillah" or the Yiddish...
I don't recall voting on any posts today. Yet when I tried, I got this message: Failed: You have used your daily vote limit: 52/5 (403) What does this mean? Is it a bug?
In my view search efficiency was a serious issue on MY. We have discussed there the different ways to improve it, and I suggested search synonyms, because there are way too many Hebrew transliterat...
What exactly counts as "Last Activity"? Does that include comments or edits or votes, or just answers? And what kind of activity prompts moving a question up higher in the list that I see (since it...
In a message on the Codidact network Discord channel, msh210 pointed out: https://judaism.codidact.com/help/faq This page -- its title and some of its text -- sound like it's introducing people to...
For those of us who were or still are a part of the Judaism StackExchange community, you'll know that they don't call themselves "Judaism Stack Exchange" – it's Mi Yodeya. Here, we're just "Judaism...
Points question -- I'm not sure how points work here. I'm not in it for the points but am curious. My point total went down 4 between yesterday and today and there is no notice or explanation for w...
Out of interest of helping move Judaism Codidact forward, if I have a question and I see it already has answers in MY, should I still ask it here (bearing in mind that, a. from what I've heard, the...
Welcome to our pro-tem moderators, Isaac Moses and DonielF. Isaac joined the team two weeks ago and I was negligent in not announcing it at the time, and DonielF has joined today. Thank you both ...
It seems likely that we will import at least some content from Mi Yodeya. There's a separate question for that; in this question I want to focus on a suggestion brought up in an answer there: keep...
As we’re building up this community, I thought it would be a neat idea to feature a weekly topic challenge, similar to when MY was getting started (see here). The idea would be as follows: A new c...
This is a test to see if the Sefaria linking works. @ArtOfCode says just make things that look like references. So I suppose Genesis 1:1 should give me the first Pasuk of the Torah. Let's see...
I guess this is more personal preference than anything else, but I think Hebrew in the post titles in the Q&A category uses quite an ugly font. The code seems to be h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6{ font-fa...
How about a Wiki-style Dictionary or Encyclopedia of Jewish terms? This could either be a Category or maybe part of Community-specific Help. Instead of each reference to a Jewish/Hebrew/Aramaic/etc...
כל האומר דבר בשם אומרו מביא גאולה לעולם שנא׳ ותאמר אסתר למלך בשם מרדכי Whoever says something in the name of the one who said it brings redemption to the world, as it says (Esther 2:22), "And Esth...
One of the key features of Codidact is Categories. There has been some discussion elsewhere, but now that the community is up & running, Meta is the place to talk about this. Two suggestions I ...
One thing sorely missing from Mi Yodeya is a tag hierarchy. For example, having the Book-of-Judges tag be a sub-tag of the Books-of-the-Prophets tag, so that keyword searches among the latter will ...
I suppose my question is twofold (and is about the Q&A category only). What purpose are comments meant to serve? Should we have them at all? The former question is one of information. What is...
Monica Cellio wrote in a comment: @msh210 categories and post types are orthogonal. We can create a Purim Torah category that supports both Q&A and articles. (The "create post" page has a sele...
On the list of Codidact sites, each community has a short description, such as: Cooking: Our community for people interested in cooking and questions about it - methods, processes, recipes, tips, ...
Maybe the "Jews not Judaism" questions should also have their own category, or a separate tag structure (including date ranges and locations) And a clear division between biography ("Where did the ...
Welcome to the Codidact site for Judaism! We're glad you're here and we're excited to see what you will build. This community is initially starting "from scratch", without importing Q&A from ...
As we start on building a new community here together, we're bound to find some sticking points. Those might be bugs, new features you need, things you need support with... whatever they are, the C...
Here on Codidact tag names can include Hebrew. In the interest of inclusivity I created a bilingual tag for a question I just asked (and asked someone else to do the same). Questions we import fr...
Does this Judaism site on Codidact offer personal guidance in response to practical questions about Jewish law or attitudes, as a rabbi would?
