[Meta] Can line#s be displayed in the Mod queue?

Why would this be helpful? If it's a appropriate Q, publish it and reply. Edit if needed. I can't think of a case where I was deciding whether to publish a Q and needed to check a line #.

Sounds like this is for using the $$anonymous$$od Q as a short-time help room? But aren't we really, really supposed to discourage that?

I don't see the point in publishing a question that can be resolved in the mod queue with a simple "the error you referenced on line XX is fixed by (....)"

Ah...take a look at the $$anonymous$$oderator guidelines. Under "Debugging Qs" it suggests you NOT answer, but ins$$anonymous$$d guide them to general Learn to Program sections. Or, if you know of somewhere else appropriate (I had a guy claim Reddit has a Unity help room.)

The idea (which I feel also falls under "Promote Good Behavior from Users") is we can't have the main part of UA act as a help room -- the volume was killing us -- so we can't answer personal debugging Qs.

If we answer them in the $$anonymous$$od Q, the users are trained to keep co$$anonymous$$g back with Qs like that. And will ask more. And will eventually get enough $$anonymous$$arma to post straight to UA. And other angry users complain to the paid staffers "why was my Q rejected when all these similar Qs weren't?"

There are more examples of why the line #s is handy too, not just that one example. I'm satisfied with Harshad$$anonymous$$'s answer.

UA is meant to be Searchable. If you see a unique Q, think of everyone else who might find it. Often the OP will Accept a very limited work-around, or a complete swerve. Don't worry about it. There are Qs where the Accepted Answer has 1 checkmark, but another answer has 50+ checks.

Of course, most Qs will clearly never come up in a Search. But if you think you have something to add to an interesting Q, or even a better answer, go ahead and post it. Again, think what you'd want to see if you found that Q in a search.
