Didn't work for me. Do changes have to be approved? I tried changing the title of "Beach 'Bot view 1" a couple of times, but it remained unchanged.

I also tried changing "BASIC Stamp Preprocessor v2.13" (to add a line to the beginning of the description.) When I clicked "Save", the description was replaced with a "refreshing " message. (It never did refresh.) I clicked on the title, and then the "Cancel" button, and the title was changed to the text of the description!

I tried changing the description again, and this time the text was changed to
"refreshing "! (See screen shot below.)

  • I voted against a tag which (from the way you described to me how tag voting works) apparently had been hanging around for over two weeks, and had had no votes cast either for or against it, because it immediately disappeared. In my opinion, the fact that there were no votes against it for two weeks should at least count as one vote FOR the tag. Maybe a vote should require a quorum before a tag could be considered voted down.
