I know, I was just pointing out that there are other parts of this functionality that are broken. They might as well kill 2 birds with one stone when they get around to fixing this (if they indeed need to fix anything).

I was just re-phrasing to make sure we show them both the birds to kill (as you already said, iff they need to be killed!)

Sandeep, I think you commented my answer, instead of the OPs question. Here.[^].

Ok. It's just that I see this quite often.
Further, if OP accepts and then unaccepts, can system internally remove the comment too? If so, it would not confuse anyone.
EDIT: Another thought to the issue of having comment even after vote is removed - Why do we need a comment for an auto-vote at all?

When I view this question in the list of questions (under the "active" tab), it says "Activity 2 hours ago by Chris Maunder." However, I don't see any indication on that question or its answers that CM touched a thing. No revisions by him, no comments by him, and no answers by him. Perhaps votes count as "activity" now? Or deletions of answers/comments? Or maybe he did add an answer, then it was deleted? It seems this Chris Maunder is a ninja, leaving no evidence behind that he was ever there, aside from the path of devastation in his wake.

He is known to impersonate other people occasionally, rumor has it dear Henry was his latest victim.

whoever claims there is a hole in the bucket is mistaken. Henry could confirm this.

Well, I would but I can't seem to find the bucket at the moment. Can you make do with a large sandwich box (No holes. Guaranteed!)?

Maybe you should start looking for your glasses. In the process you might stumble upon the bucket. Or your slippers. You can't but win.

This is it! I can see his answer deleted.
Though, I would like to share the answer posted by him.

Hmmm, though I suspected that, that is counter-intuitive. Perhaps one of the "last updated" messages could be "Answer deleted 5 minutes ago". That way, the user isn't left wondering what update occurred 2 hours ago that isn't visible for some unknown reason. Not sure if you'd want to bump the answer in that scenario or not.

Could we get maybe the below two CSS styles defined for articles? I'd like to use some call-outs like they do in Reader's Digest. I don't want to use the "nav-right-sidebar" because call-outs shouldn't be tied to the layout of your hosting interface. You have a call-out style defined, but it doesn't have any width.
Also, is it possible to create a "code-collapsed" style? I want to be able to display collapsed segments of code so the user can orient themselves within a segment of auto-generated code (by the MS InterOp Toolkit). I can get close with a span style set to box, but the padding is causing overlap with the line above.
.right-sidebar
{
float:right;
width:190px;
background-color:#FFFFEF;
margin: 10px 7px 15px 15px;
border: 1px #FFCC66 solid;
border-radius:10px;
-moz-border-radius: 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
-moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
-webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
.left-sidebar
{
float:left;
width:190px;
background-color:#FFFFEF;
margin: 10px 7px 15px 15px;
border: 1px #FFCC66 solid;
border-radius:10px;
-moz-border-radius: 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
-moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
-webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}

Nevermind about the sidebars for call-outs. I kept using "style:" instead of "style=" for setting width. I'd still like to have a collapsed code style because of the munging of the formatting tool.

Not exactly sure what you mean by this: is it simply that you want to wrap some code in a collapsed block with a [+] sign to expand it later? This would require code changes. Alternatively, we could offer somethind like
<pre lang="C#" collapsed="true">
so that the code block starts off collapsed.
Or am I missing your point?

Segments that could be dynamically collapsed/expanded would be over the top fantastic. But what I need is something that mimics it.
Here's what I'm after: I'm using a tool that auto-generates code. My article isn't focusing on explaining the auto-generated code, but the stuff that's added to it. As such, the reader will find the collapsed properties and methods useful in orienting themselves within the overall code. What's not helpful is displaying the mountain of code that's in the collapsed segment.
What I can do now is something like this:
<pre lang="whatever">
...
<span class=tiny-text>[+]</span> <span class=box style=font-size:10pt>Public Property MyProperty...</span>
...
</pre>
Notice that I've left off the quotes. You have to leave them off because the <pre> tag processing adds them back automatically. As a direct result, though, you can't use multiple classes. The real problem, though, is that the box class is too large cuts into the code line above it.
Again, if there were a class like code-collapsed, you could actually place code into it that could, for now, be marked invisible, but later could be made dynamic to allow the curious reader to expand and collapse.
Without darkness, there are no dreams.
