Commonmark migration
Oct 26, 2017 at 0:12 comment added user2617804 the dividing line between E.SE and ELL.SE- BS. I had a question that was clearly useless to ESL which was forcible migrated from ELL. Naturally it got no answers there because it was about teaching to ESL and speaking. It was not about learning English as a Second Language.

Oct 14, 2016 at 19:07 comment added gnat @JonEricson history of question migration on Programmers? Numbers based on data available to SE staff? I am definitely interested, would much appreciate if you share this over there
Oct 14, 2016 at 18:04 comment added Jon Ericson StaffMod @gnat: You got me thinking about the history of question migration on Programmers. We don't have an easy way to track cross-posting (the cost of separate databases for each site), but we do know that Programmers has been a net exporter of migrated questions since 2012. (However, as Robert points out, migrations have a rather small impact right now.) Now y'all are still running a deficit because of ~12,000 questions imported from the start of the site through 2011. I can share the numbers on meta.Programmers, if you are interested.
Oct 14, 2016 at 6:48 comment added gnat ...and my flags are only a part of what bot does. Quite often I find that comment referred by bot is already removed along with the question when I arrive to flag it. I suspect that Robert is to blame for this, he frequents Whiteboard and probably uses SO mod power at the garbage stuff discovered by bot. Those interested in fuller picture can find it out analyzing Duga's Playground archive of comments reported by bot
Oct 14, 2016 at 6:36 comment added gnat @JonEricson your answer is "a)" - just check my history of helpful comments flags - few hundreds idiotic suggestions were cut before these could do intended harm. And we plan to make it even more efficient by requesting a feature of single flag deletion after Programmers name change
Oct 13, 2016 at 21:27 comment added Jon Ericson StaffMod The bot is either a) working brilliantly or b) a waste of time. In the past 90 days 8 questions have been migrated from SO => Programmers. Only one was rejected. (Compare that to 87 to Stats and 60 to Meta.)

Oct 13, 2016 at 17:42 comment added Monica Cellio I believe you that Programmers has problems with people misunderstanding scope. On the sites where I have access to the moderation tools, the vast majority of our outbound migrations are successful. But they're also smaller sites with correspondingly fewer migrations, so maybe that's relevant.
