Why anonymous down-voting in Tip/Trick is allowed?
-
Why does it not work like in articles? Just got anonymous vote of 1 to my first Tip/Trick and now I’m wondering if it has sense to do some effort to write something to section Tip/Trick…..

They're still working on the Tips/Tricks stuff. I think they even mentioned that non-anonymouse 1/2 voting will be implemented "soon".

I suspect the low votes may be due to the fact that your Tip contains no detail about what the code does or why. People tend to like good descriptions, as can be found in your well received articles.

Just had a look at your tip/trick, and for the amount of information you have posted, would have thought that should have been fleshed out with some narrative, and then be used as a full blown article. I understand a tip/trick to be a brief piece of information or code relating to a single feature/topic/point. That is presented in a concise way. [and no i haven't voted...so it wasn't me!]

I think he was actually just wondering why the Tips/Tricks can be anonymously 1-voted, while articles cannot be.

Hi Richard, Thanks for good explanation. I see your point. This is the reason why there is written: “It's useful for someone who already knows it and who is just looking for the exact solution.” My personal opinion is that if I want a detailed description, I have to go to the section articles. But, yes :)… I respect the voting :). I just say, it could be good to know the reason of vote 1/2 like “article voting system” does. Thanks, Petr.

Hi Petr, I agree with your explanation, but unfortunately, as we see every day, people just do not read things like this. I do agree that anonymous 1/2 voting should not be allowed; let's hope this is another change that happens soon.
