A: proposal: merge Scientific Speculation with a new Worldbuilding community Another crosspost: Workshop A comment thread on the Sci Spec post points out that "workshop" has been used in some discussions to refer to two different things: - a sandbox where you develop a question before posting it in Q&A - developing broader ideas or compiling resources, such as w...

A: proposal: merge Scientific Speculation with a new Worldbuilding community Categories Copying an update I posted on Proposals: The voting on these two meta posts has been positive. The only other feedback so far has been on Sci Spec. An answer there pushed back on the idea of segregating the science questions: > I'm not sold on this category split, though. If... (more) |

Thanks. This conceptual answer helped me to visualize the overall effects alongside the details in other answers. (more) |

Scientific Speculation spun off from Worldbuilding originally because people wanted to exclude magic, for which the answer is often "it's magic; you can make it do whatever you want". But people can now use filters here, so a tag-based approach could work. Can those who have been active in Sci ... (more) |

| Question | — |
proposal: merge Scientific Speculation with a new Worldbuilding community We'd like to discuss advancing the proposed worldbuilding community and merging it with Scientific Speculation. A discussion on Sci Spec meta was positive (see also this comment thread on the proposal). Specifically, if both communities agree, we would: - Create a community (name discussio... (more) |

Thanks for your post. I've made a suggestion in response in [a new answer](https://scientific-speculation.codidact.com/posts/293812/295205#answer-295205). (more) |

A: Should Scientific Speculation support information-sharing that isn't in question form? Prompted by this new answer to this meta question: This community has very low activity right now, and I wonder if posts in a different category would be missed. It is possible for questions and articles to sit alongside each other in the same category, at the small cost of one extra prompt f... (more) |

| Question | — |
Any objection to not granting Participate Everywhere to new users automatically? New users on our communities automatically gain the Participate ability, which allows limited participation. In particular, you're rate-limited on posting, you can only comment on your own posts and answers to your own questions by default, and links in your profile are not linkified for people ... (more) |

This question (and another older one) prompted me to ask [Should Scientific Speculation support information-sharing that isn't in question form?](https://scientific-speculation.codidact.com/posts/293812) on Meta.

| Question | — |
Should Scientific Speculation support information-sharing that isn't in question form? We've had a couple posts (example (deleted), example) that aren't really questions, but are information and maybe starting points for development. Over on the Worldbuilding proposal we're talking about a 'workshop' category where such posts would fit. This isn't Worldbuilding, though there is a... (more) |

Categories can restrict posting somewhat (as on the Meta blog, which is limited to staff), but it's not tied into the abilities system, unfortunately. (Abilities came later.) There's a concept of "established user" in the category settings but I'd have to look up what that means. *If* the comm... (more) |

Anybody could submit posts and there was an editorial board. (Any editor could approve and schedule a post.) There was also a chat room (on SE) where people could discuss ideas or work in progress. I don't remember anything ever being rejected; spammers and trolls didn't find their way there. (more) |

Right, it was separate because SE wouldn't support an on-site blog. (They used to, but when WB asked for one they said "not doing that any more, try Medium" so we did.) Here on Codidact, if the community wanted, there could be a "blog" category like on Meta, and the community could shape it how... (more) |

The Worldbuilding community on SE had a blog for several years. It fizzled after things started going downhill at SE, but this is what made me think that folks here might want one. (I'm not pushing the idea; it's up to the community.) The [original blog](https://medium.com/universe-factory) ha... (more) |

In a combined community, I would fold Rigorous Science into the science category and add guidance to the effect that if you want particularly rigorous answers, say so in the question (same as you would do for any other special requirements or constraints). This makes the questions more casually ... (more) |

One possibility would be to have a worldbuilding community with broad Q&A and a "science-only" category reflecting Scientific Speculation's scope. (more) |
