Should short answers be comments or answers?

Well, I probably should have left that as an answer rather than a comment. I tend to just comment if I'm in a hurry and don't have time to compose a more complete answer. Though, for that question, I ...

Again, I am getting tired of all the stale, unanswered questions being dredged up by "Community"

Yeah, when I saw the main page this morning I felt the same. But honestly I don't think we can do much about that. Potentially we could ask to decrease the amount of questions that are being bumped. ...

Design for Signal Processing Stack Exchange

Looks great Stéphane! The one thought I have about it (in addition to Peter's suggestion) is that the waveform might benefit from a level of secondary detail to suggest that the signal has been ...

Citing StackExchange or the Signal Processing group

SE.DSP is peer reviewed to some extend. Not in the traditional "journal" sense, meanwhile predatory publishing or randomized peer-review, to name a few, have changed the deal. A post in SE.DSP can ...

Stack Exchange Signal processing in the real life: meeting contributors

I also think it could be fun meeting some SE.DSPers IRL if our space-time paths can be made to intersect with little effort. I can usually be found in the Eindhoven area, the Netherlands.

Self-answering without peer-review: benefit or harmful

The short answer is yes - you can and you should answer your own questions. Please read more about it in the FAQ. However, I do not understand what do you mean by "there was no review of any kind"?

How to deal with unfair downvotes?

This is a well-known problem on the Stack Exchange network, and there are automatic mechanisms in place to try to deal with it. I'm not sure if the process will be triggered by two downvotes, but it ...

How much of Image Processing does Signal Processing Handle?

There was an attempt to set up an Area 51 Computer Vision site, but it has since been deleted for lack of support. I personally believe that signal processing is an all-encompassing field, and that ...

It can't! That's why you get this explicit warning that the bounty cannot be refunded:

Question's title idem as content, and nothing more. Your thoughts on this?

This would be a sign for me, reflecting lack of context and enough prior self-attempt. Due to this impression, these questions usually receive less attention. The best strategy (in my opinion) is to ...

Well, it's hard, because sometimes the OP doesn't understand enough to know what they don't understand... so you need to take a "shotgun" or "scattergun" approach to answering. I'd say elaborate as ...

Rename the `Hilbert` Tag into `Hilbert-Transform`

I agree. I've performed this merge and created a synonym so that hilbert will be matched to hilbert-transform in the future.

I tend to prefer sentence case, as that Meta Stackexchange post says. We should make that clear, by stating it here. For these examples, the editor changing things to title case is a good ...
