1This is much too broad a question and it was automatically flagged by the Stack Exchange software due to its shortness and content. Users processing the review queues won't see that it's actually a self-answered question - and may vote to close it. You should edit the question to include more specific details.Anthony Geoghegan– Anthony Geoghegan2017-10-09 19:24:23 +00:00Commented Oct 9, 2017 at 19:24

@AnthonyGeoghegan I've split my Q/A into two separate ones.Ricardo Decal– Ricardo Decal2017-10-10 17:16:12 +00:00Commented Oct 10, 2017 at 17:16

Splitting the question wasn’t useful and I'd suggest that you re-merge them. I was trying to say that reviewers of questions in the Close queue would not see the answer. Without knowing that it was self-answered, the question looked like a bad one and reviewers would be likely to vote to close it. I was suggesting that you include more specific details such as including i3wm in the body of the question, describe the tasks in more detail and say something like despite researching this, it wasn’t particularly obvious how to accomplish these tasks.

2This question seems fine to me. I don't see the reason it has to be expanded arbitrarily. It should be reopened in my opinion.Hofbr– Hofbr2022-12-15 06:10:18 +00:00Commented Dec 15, 2022 at 6:10

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
