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.

TL;DR Is Shaimos an issue to be concerned about in posts, and if so, what policy should we set? This question contains (at the moment) a name of God in Hebrew that is considered Shaimos, requiring...
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...
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...
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...
After seeing this post in the Divrei Torah section, which in the opinion of some didn't quite fit the category of DT, and I agree, I thought of suggesting the creation of another section of the sit...
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...
We have learned by experience that the data-import process gets tripped up by some character encodings... like Hebrew. (Oops!) The mix of HTML (what we can get from SE) and Markdown and character...
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...
I wanted to view the imported question about the difference between אנכי and אני. I did a search for "what is the difference", and found links to various answers to a question with the title "Diffe...
We do not expound...upon Creation in a group of two, nor upon the 'Matter of the Divine Chariot' even to an individual, unless he is wise and can intuit on his own. Whoever delves into four topics...
According to the help center, to ask a "great question," you should "Do some research...In addition to just making sure your question hasn't been asked already here on Codidact, take a few moments ...
From https://judaism.codidact.com/posts/277877/history:
There is a post asking about "Plants before the Sun in the Order of Creation." On my screen, it registers as having no answers, but when I look at the question, I see 4 answers. Do imported answers...
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...
I cannot get number lists to work I press the icon and get a 1. next to which I add copy and hit enter. It does not automatically add a 2. so I hit the icon again and I get another 1. Any ideas on ...
Does this Judaism site on Codidact offer personal guidance in response to practical questions about Jewish law or attitudes, as a rabbi would?
I know that there are some customary "categories" of daily contemplation during the Omer -- combinations of Chesed, Hod, etc. I know that each week has one of these as a theme, and then within tha...
I received an edit suggestion yesterday. a. I am unable to tell what was changed. Is there a way to highlight the changes? b. I eventually assumed that the edit was of a minor spelling mistake, s...
I saw in my notifications that there was an answer to my question, so I clicked and was transported to my question. I read the answer and upvoted it. It was good. I then looked and saw 4 more noti...
Is it worthwhile to include a sidebar widget with some useful links for learning about Judaism and Jewish practice and law, such as Sefaria, Hebrew Books, etc.? If yes, what links, specifically, wo...
I had an idea that might help evolve the Judaism Codidact somewhat: Every week, making a thread in which everyone can post something interesting they learned over the past week about Judaism and/or...
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 ...
What is our stance on creating new tags? On MY it was preferable not to create new ones, but what about here?
When i had seen the community first time. Lot of questions came to my mind. So, i became interested to know about Judaism. I am not a Jews. I had a religion. But, later i became atheist. And, now i...
"Too broad" is currently a close reason. How broad is too broad? "Cannot be answered in just a few paragraphs" seems too vague to be meaningful, and some questions can be very narrow yet require l...
When we launched this community, we did not yet have the ability to set different reputation grants for different categories. We've had this for a while but we failed to follow up before now, sorr...
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...
I miss the post view counter. I really loved to see how much impact a question or an answer has.
One can see from this chat why one needs it on a question and answer site such as this. It is impossible to fully discuss a subject without one. https://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/123299/discuss...
There are many many more posts on the SE Judaism site than here. One should be asking the question why? Many people belong to both and still regularly post questions and answers there and not here....
