Adding a picture to a page
Do you happen to know how to add an image to a page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by OfficialJeffMartin (talk • contribs) 19:30, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
Idea
I am not sure but somebody would have already asked it.
Can there something be done to Teahouse so that unanswered questions have some notice (either in bold or a tag on it like {{unanswered}}) for those questions which has not been answered yet?
Sometimes, I see some user's question goes down (under other questions:) and other were actually answered quickly but not his/her
aGastya ✉ let's have a constructive talk about it (: 15:59, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

- This could be a HostBot task, but I'm leery of having a bot post on the Teahouse Q&A page very often, because it's high traffic and having the bot post there is likely lead to increased edit conflicts. How about we just put a do not archive template on any thread that hasn't been answered and is in danger of disappearing? - J-Mo Email Me 21:08, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Use of Answered template
I know this has been discussed before (and if I find the archive link I'll add it) but I recall that current consensus is not to mark questions as answered because despite the wording of {{Answered}} not precluding further answers, the existence of the border and the background colour are a visual deterrent and the intention was not to dissuade anyone from adding to answers.
Happy for the issue to be discussed and reconsidered again as consensus isn't permanent but would like the discussion to happen before the change is made. Nthep (talk) 11:46, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, that was the rationale last time I saw this issue raised, I believe. Cheers, - J-Mo Email Me 20:34, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

NICE
Has anyone here tried User:EpochFail/NICE (used for an experiment a few years ago)? It seemed to help with editor retention. I'm not sure that it's still working, but I wonder if people here would like to see something like this in use. (Please {{ping}} me; I'm reaching watchlist bankruptcy again.)
