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.

Sorry about the confusion! We imported a small number of questions and answers from Mi Yodeya. If any of those had been written by you, then they would have been assigned to a "holding" account on import. When you connected your accounts and claimed the content, those posts would have been changed to be owned by you. Early in Codidact's development, we expected to be doing a lot of data imports and so built this connection. Over time we've come to realize that bulk imports don't serve us well, and some communities that did them later deleted some of that content. Here on Judaism we only did selective imports; we had the idea of selectively importing more on request, but it turns out that the data-import scripts are kind of fragile so we haven't. (I think I still have an open feature request for a UI for one-shot imports.) We probably ought to make some changes to that section of the profile to make all this more clear, sorry! Meanwhile, if you have a question you asked over there, you can re-ask it here -- it's your words and you don't need anyone's permission. If you have a good answer to a question someone else asked, and you'd like to bring it here (and, even better, improve it here), you can re-ask the question in your own words and then answer it.
