  • Is the asking/answering user's reputation on StackExchange in any way influenced by incoming links: • from the very same StackExchange subdomain • from somewhere else in the StackExchange network • from selected high-quality 3rd party sites in the respective subject matter • from any external sources • evaluated by analytical tools or search engine rankings?

  • @Sonicthe I think keeping the "-2 rep due to suggested edit post deletion" is a common enough case that it should stay in the table, even if the other reason stays removed. While that case is mentioned in the parenthesis of your first new bullet, it doesn't include the -2 amount, and it's not nearly as easy to find as it is in the table. Commented Feb 22, 2022 at 21:50

    @zcoop98 In my edit summary, I was referring to the bullet containing Actions previously taken on deleted posts cease to affect reputation. That said, I've added text to that bullet so it's more clearly covered. It doesn't belong in the table because it's fundamentally a rep reversal, and those don't always affect rep in the same way (e.g. if rep was never earned from the removed edit because one or the other cap was hit before it was approved, you won't lose 2 rep).

    Weird because imagine I give a downvote first to a new user and then give him an upvote, the reputation turns into 11. While first I give him an upvote then give the downvote it will turn into 9! Same manner different result! Commented Sep 11, 2023 at 7:41
