| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:32 | comment | added | Andrew J. Brehm | I still don't see how any questions asking for lists of things violate any of the off-topic rules. The rules certainly don't state anything like that. I deleted my question and will try to find a different forum to ask it in. Happy hunting. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:30 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | Nope. And its entirely your fault for bringing it to my attention. Generally we leave these alone until someone complains, or there's an organised clean up. Generally this is a low priority task unless someone complains about it. The second one was a trivial fix to bring on topic. | |

| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:27 | comment | added | Andrew J. Brehm | You are seriously considering putting a question on hold that is over a year old, has several upvotes and several answers, one of which is accepted? Are you going to hunt down all questions like that now? There are dozens of them that I could see. This will kill many of the most interesting questions that have always been regarded as on-topic. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:26 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | I mean the video card question. Its on hold now. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:25 | comment | added | Andrew J. Brehm | Says on my screen that it is on hold. I'll delete it in a few hours. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:24 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | On the contrary, its not put on hold yet. I'll take a look at it in the morning for the relevant action. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:22 | comment | added | Andrew J. Brehm | This question superuser.com/questions/533457/… asks for a list of graphics cards. It is on-topic. It's criteria are more subjective than the one in my question and I am sure perfomant graphics cards are outdated more quickly than CPU architectures. | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:19 | comment | added | Andrew J. Brehm | So do I. There are several questions for lists of CPUs, so asking for lists appeears to be on-topic. Why would a list of CPU architectures be off-topic? | |
| Dec 18, 2014 at 15:17 | comment | added | Journeyman Geek Mod | " is there a list of CPU architectures " says it all, I think. | |
