Please Note: Do not use comments to answer these questions. This proposal is not part of a Q&A site, and the task at hand is to submit "example questions" to help define what is on and off topic for a site. Comments are here to help improve the questions by asking for clarification or to suggest improvments; not to answer them. See What is the rationale for deleting answers? Thank you. – Robert Cartaino Mar 3 '16 at 16:09

This question covers exactly the same ground as another question in this proposal.

This proposal is about to undergo a final review, so for the purpose of defining the scope of this proposal, pruning out closely-related questions helps assure we have a sufficient breadth of subject matter to actually create this site. – Robert Cartaino Jun 13 '16 at 17:00
