Consensus: I agree with: "Workflow involving computers would be less SU and more Productivity"

 

If that won't work I'll try CSTheory.SE and Skeptics.SE, if that won't work I'll complain at Meta.SO...

 

Didn't expect to see this question get closed here, even after this blog post... :(


My question What was scientifically shown to support productivity when structural organizing/accessing file and folders? is not off-topic, here is why:

... [snipped, I no longer represent this POV] ...

If you do support the closing, please explain:

  • Why are thesis / research level data off-topic for Super User (or any Stack Exchange sites)?

  • How do I know if my answer fits right between "not constructive" and "too scientific"?

My question What was scientifically shown to support productivity when structural organizing/accessing file and folders? is not off-topic, here is why:

My question is about personal computer files and folders used by computer users.

Closing a question like this is equivalent to:

Pushing off your highest quality questions to another community.

Something a recent blog post even mentions:

As members of a community, your first loyalty should be to that community. When evaluating a question, you shouldn’t be looking to push it off on some other site; instead, ask if it could be appropriate and on-topic for you, the experts who the author decided to ask. Be a bit jealous of your site – don’t blithely turn askers away simply because their question could be asked somewhere else. Don’t hit them over the head with your scope, help them tailor their question to fit into it – and if that means your site’s scope overlaps a bit with another site’s, so be it.

If the community decides to go through with this, they are merely cutting in their own fingers and decide to rather take useless amounts of quantity than having an useful questions with valuable computer advice they can refer to in the future.

First you close What should I consider when deciding on how to manage huge personal data? for being not constructive and then you close What was scientifically shown to support productivity when structural organizing/accessing file and folders? for being too constructive, do I need to be semi-constructive? :-/

I will no longer take part of this mess of close-minded people if the community decides to go through.
