Apr 18, 2020 at 23:17 | comment | added | Ramhound | The answer was deleted by spam by the community user. This means enough users flagged it as spam for that to happen. | |
Apr 18, 2020 at 17:02 | comment | added | Andrew Morton | @DavidPostill Thanks. It didn't look right to me, but it's good to get confirmation from a moderator. I can't tell nowadays if editing out "thanks" is regarded as being unkind to new users, but that's a different matter. | |
Apr 18, 2020 at 16:56 | comment | added | DavidPostill Mod | The "thanks Name" shouldn't be in questions or answers and is likely to be deleted anyway. It certainly doesn't count as a declaration of affiliation, or of ownership of the linked resource. | |
Apr 18, 2020 at 15:20 | comment | added | Andrew Morton | @Makyen Thanks, I guess someone else decided it really was spam, hence the deletion. | |
Apr 18, 2020 at 15:14 | comment | added | Makyen | I can't comment on the actual answer, because it's deleted and I can't see it. However, disclosure of affiliation must be explicit, but doesn't need to be formal. Just something like "I wrote", "on my site/blog", etc. is sufficient. It is not sufficient to require a reader to match a link or domain to the author's username. The "Thanks" which you include in the question here does not count as disclosure of affiliation. | |
