Nov 30, 2012 at 3:53 comment added coteyr I really think we should keep it in a single language. Fracturing the user base between several languages will just cause 2 problems (posting everywhere several times with poorly translated versions,smaller groups of people that can help) Fractured English is better then 20 askubuntu's where no one gets their answer.

Nov 16, 2010 at 22:16 comment added MagicFab Forgot to add the proper link for people that have asked Debian questions on Shapado: ask.debian.net/users
Nov 16, 2010 at 22:05 comment added MagicFab BTW, the troubleshooter badge in Shapado is only for users who had their first answered accepted as solution. So the numbers are really different :) Speaking of audience, you can't really compare when Shapado still has only a tiny community pushing it when Ask Ubuntu has been made the default destination. Frankly I am happy to have both resources and participate in both, but Shapado may be best for language-specific questions.
Nov 16, 2010 at 21:44 comment added badp @MagicFab I don't have an account on Ubuntu Shapado. (Yet?)
Nov 16, 2010 at 21:39 comment added MagicFab Hey badp, what is your username on ubuntu.shapado.com ? I usually contribute there too, I'll gladly answer any questions.
Nov 15, 2010 at 14:26 comment added badp @Lucian I'm not saying LoCo teams have no chance of being helpful. However, the context is quite different. An IRC channel with, say, twenty active users is a busy channel. A forum with twenty active users is an average forum. A Q&A site with twenty active users is a dead city. The SE team, more specifically, determined 300 committed users and 150 active users is the bare minimum required for a healthy Q&A site.
Nov 15, 2010 at 14:15 comment added Lucian Adrian Grijincu In some countries Ubuntu Loco Teams have local forums in which Ubuntu users speak in their native languages about their problems. For example in Romania we have forum.ubuntu.ro, and there are quite a few posts that address issues found by Romanian users that don't know how to express their problem well in English. And many of those problems have been solved by other users.
