Ok, since we now have a moderator who speaks fluent French, is it possible that we could re-open the the 'francophones' thread, or make a new one? This applies to any other new moderator who speaks another language... Just wandering, thanks  .

It doesn't work like that Sam. This is an English speaking site.

But I don't understand why we still can't do it. That's a little discriminatory don't you think?

Poicë joins us to assist in monitoring and managing whatever activity on the site she can. It cannot be one member of staff's responsibility to monitor a specific topic.
We are an English speaking site and therefore only incidental non-English content is permissible. There is no discrimination here, this site is not intended for non-English content.

Oh well... it was worth a try. I happen to really like le français.

The best argument against this is:
QA is a site for any young LGBT person. All content is open to all members. As soon as we allow non-English content, we start excluding people from discussions and we will see the creation of cliques, alienating staff and members alike.

Makes sense, I guess I'll have to join another site like QA where I can be myself instead of a closet-french-speaker lol

Bumping this topic.
English-only content please, so that it can be read by all members and so that QA Staff can enforce the Safe Space.
