Jul 19, 2018 at 19:20 | comment | added | Stephan Kolassa | Sadly enough, the thread I used as an example - where the OP obviously went to quite some effort to craft a good question, and where Scortchi and I left comments asking for clarification - has been deleted in the meantime. The OP never answered our comments, and so Community did a RemoveAbandonedClosed on it. Another nail in my motivation to leave a comment next time, to mix metaphors. | |

All the same, I try to shake it off: some guidance is better than none, & if the OP only makes a start on improving their question, someone else may pick up where I've left off. (There are some questions, of course, though not all that many, where there's nothing useful to be said beyond the "unclear what you're asking" boiler-plate.) | |
