- I think the bullet list in the current on-topic page is clearer and easier to understand. Admittedly, there are some "confrontal" bullets, but that's OK in my point of view.
- Sure, there are always very delicate persons who will be choked by the crudity of the terms. But is it bad? these QA sites with their voting system are somewhat rude anyway, and it is probably better to warn these persons about that; in this way, the reader gets quickly the point.
- **EDIT:**
- The only thing I find possibly too crude is:
- > URGENT!!!
- >
- > Not our problem.
- I suggest to replace it with
- > URGENT!!!

- > Irrelevant.

- > Only these specific quoted parts that are about homework, for this discussion here.
- So, you suggest to remove the bullet "urgent", the bullet "No interest", and to improve the bullet "homework" (am I right?)
- If that is the case, I see several problems in your text: the first 4 paragraphs are not directly related to homework but are general (this is why I thought you want to replace the whole page).
- The last two paragraphs are OK, but curiously, I think they are not less "confrontal" than the current content, in particular, when you say
- >Expecting unpaid volunteers to do your whole homework for you is simply rude
- By the way, I would like to point about something similar that can often be seen inside answers, to my regret: "you are wasting my time". Such words are deeply humiliating: if you offer to answer to a question, that means that you offer to waste some time. Don't blame the OP afterward for it. If you don't want to waste more time, simply warn that you have done your best or even stop answering at all.
- Returning to the main subject, I think one of the good thing in the current page is that the bullets are concise and can be quickly understood. I'm not sure it's a good idea to inflate the "homework" bullet.
