Commonmark migration
Oct 21, 2019 at 9:51 comment added Oli Mod @Shayan OP can request but we're still not going to migrate bad questions. I'd like to think we point that out in a rejection.
Oct 21, 2019 at 8:12 comment added Mast @Shayan Often enough the target site will close the question. When that happens, the migration is rejected. The result can be messy.
Oct 21, 2019 at 8:04 comment added Melebius @Mast Migration is effectively not available for ordinary users on AU currently, see meta.askubuntu.com/questions/724/migration-paths. According to my experience, it’s more efficient to ask OP to repost their question on the target site than ask a moderator to migrate it.
Oct 20, 2019 at 20:54 comment added Shayan What if the OP asks for their question to be migrated? Can mods not accept it? :)
Oct 20, 2019 at 14:33 comment added Mast "That is off-topic here, so that means it's on-topic on U&L or Superuser, right?" Do people really believe this? If so, we should simply remove the migrate function for ordinary users.
Oct 11, 2019 at 22:19 comment added Oli Mod Absolutely! I believe —for example— that migrations are an extremely blunt tool and don't migrate the user, which is often what needs to happen in Q&A style events. My bar is pretty high.

Oct 11, 2019 at 13:35 comment added Thomas Ward Mod Also keep in mind from moderator to moderator the 'requirements' also vary - what one moderator thinks is migration-worthy others may think are not, and vice versa. (We usually err on the side of caution though and don't migrate things)
