We are getting many questions that are not in the scope of this website.
For example: http://joomla.stackexchange.com/questions/17009/advice-on-setting-up-joomla-for-client-management-and-subscriptionshttps://joomla.stackexchange.com/questions/17009/advice-on-setting-up-joomla-for-client-management-and-subscriptions - this question is definitely out of the scope here, and can't be answered.
When I want to comment on such questions and explain why their question will be closed, I want to link to the appropriate help section - at the section of What topics can I ask about here?What topics can I ask about here?.
However, the problem is that this section says nothing about the topics and the scope of the questions that are acceptable here.
I checked a couple of other SE websites to see how they are doing it:
- WP site: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/help/on-topic
- SuperUser : https://superuser.com/help/on-topic
So my questions here:
- Is our Topics section that empty, because we are in beta?
- Shouldn't we take care this section, so new users get introduced into the scope of the website and how to edit this section?
- And most important, we shall start the discussion to define the type of questions/topics this site is accepting.
*There was a similar discussion some time ago here: What should the dos/don'ts contain? Not sure what was the outcome of that discussion.
