Sep 27, 2023 at 2:03 comment added benrg r/AskHistorians does have high quality answers, but they achieve that by having mods who aggressively delete anything not meeting their standards, not by democratic voting.
Sep 26, 2023 at 17:52 comment added Stevoisiak @NoDataDumpNoContribution I've edited my answer to use AskHistorians as my example, a Reddit community known for high quality answers to domain specific questions.

Sep 20, 2023 at 22:09 comment added NoDataDumpNoContribution "this can work since it's essentially the same system Reddit uses" Reddit is known for high quality answers to specific domain questions? Then I just got it wrong all the time. I always only see highly entertaining content without much depth and there everyone can vote makes sense, but maybe not here. The experiment might be able to show that if the results can be interpreted in a clear manner.

Sep 20, 2023 at 21:18 comment added user400654 my interpretation was, by increasing voting in general, you're reducing the ratio of the votes that are coming from "experts", assuming we're calling users with high "reputation" within the tag experts, but, that's kinda "the goal" i think
Sep 20, 2023 at 20:25 comment added starball Mod it's not clear to me why this experiment would cause highly-voted-on-answers to be less voted on by experts. can you elaborate on your thought process?
