There are a number of questions of similar type that get asked here:
- How many conditions in an "if clause" is acceptable?
- https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/5804/using-catching-exceptions-to-improve-readability-good-or-bad
- https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/5706/is-saving-markup-to-the-data-layer-good-practice
- Is this a "pythonic" method of executing functions based on the values of a tuple?
My read on Best practice questions and the FAQ is that none of these questions are on-topic for code review. However, at least one of the questions was migrated to code review after asking a mod who indicated it was acceptable.
So questions:
- Are these on-topic for Code Review?
- If not, do they belong on StackOverflow or Programmers?
- Do we want to go back and move all of these questions to the appropriate site, or leave well enough alone and only apply the policy to newer questions.
