Should old, high-rep, link-only, accepted answers be deleted?
- ColdHawaiian 12y agoTL;DR (Summary) There's currently a debate going on right now on Meta Stack Overflow (the new one, if you didn't hear about the spin-off of Meta Stack Exchange[0]) about whether or not highly upvoted, accepted, link-only answers should be deleted or not. One of the alternatives proposed is to turn them into comments instead. For additional context, see 1. How should accepted link-only answers be handled?[1]. 2. Your answer is in another castle: when is an answer not an answer?[2]. Edit: if you want your voice heard, now is the time to speak. Go vote, or comment, or write your own proposed solution.
