Comment on: Dumb Beginner HTML Question

I tried to use the technical term to help expose you to it in case you had not heard it before. It'll be easier to remember it now 😁

Welcome to programming! A few thousand more of these and you get faster at seeing them.

It looks like you need to close your anchor tag prior to the img tag.

I outlined very specifically why it was confusing.

Submissions are expected to be educational, and not only about programming (E.g. movies, TV)

I think that wording is good!

As long it's directly linked through the submission, it's fine.

Ah ok! Now I understand thank you! That is not at all clear from the guidelines! For the record this show is available on youtube, if only aspects of it. I don't have cable anything I watch is on the internet, in this day and age it cannot be assumed that a TV show is only available in a specific location. While I understand where you are coming from, this does not feel like a completely altruistic action.

It's just not my job to read through Google about TV shows.

I agree it isn't your job, however not being familiar with something programming related does not mean it isn't programming related and therefore should be removed. Your community could be better served if a degree of latitude is exercised if participants in a conversation are demonstrating a familiarity with the topic, and you aren't aware of it, so maybe you can let the community vote on whether it fits into programming if you don't feel like doing the work on your own. Carte blanche removing of topics benefits no one, and feels a bit like another atmosphere a lot of us have left because of this type of reaction.

I'm not asking you to go back on your decision your honor. No one is questioning your authority. But perhaps we can update the guide lines to include information that allows us to better guide content that won't be removed. This is for the better of everyone. Rather than forcing people to learn by trial and error.

While I find random to be not helpful in describing the nature of the issue with the program, I am without insight into what specifically makes this program random.

I'm also a little confused by your example

Even a TV show actually teaching programming is questionable, as the audience in here is global and not America-only (Where a America-only TV show would maybe work). You can replace America with anything else, it serves as example of a non-global audience.

I don't understand why the country of origin matters for programming related content, programming is a global commonality, and programming themes will be the same regardless, if an Australian programming show accurately depicted/taught programming (and was ground breaking in this effort) should someone not post it because it came from Australia?

As you can clearly see, submissions with YouTube videos or channels teaching programming in one way or the other are not removed and are there to stay.

I'm confused, you prior stated that programs actually teaching coding are questionable, but here you state they are here to stay?

Yeah it was meant to be more about the programming references actually being accurate. Now if the point is that programming in main stream media isn't an acceptable topic that is fine, but this doesn't really fit into the current 3 rules as they are.
