The " Bad Spelling/Grammar Tier" of a question's alternates includes all of the alternates that are misspelled or have incorrect grammar. This tier enables us to find more ways of asking a question, directing the user to the correct question format.
The tier can hold an unlimited amount of alternates, unlike the first tier.
# The first tier is for alternative ways of asking the question that have correct spelling and that are grammatically correct. # The second or Bad spelling tier is for the wordings that have spelling mistakes and are badly worded.
The bad spelling tier is for all correct alternate wordings of the question being asked that is spelled incorrectly, or has a bad grammar syntax.
You cannot delete an alternate. However, for ones with bad spelling, grammar, etc., you can add them to the "Bad spelling/grammar" tier. If you are talking about "splitting questions," making the alternate a question because it isn't asking the same thing as the question, then when you are signed in and at the question, on the left side of the screen click "Edit altrenates." Then "split question" (after you find it)
There is no way to edit wordings directly, but you can add wordings with the correct spelling or grammar. If you are asking how to move wordings from tier to tier, after you have made a certain number of edits, you are able to move a wording from good tier to bad tier or vice versa by clicking on a link in the edit alternates page. The alternates should not be edited. This ensures that if the question is asked again in the same way it will go directly to the primary question
The bad spelling tier is located in the alternate questions, but it is only available to supervisors.
That's just the way it is. The website designers did not want to give credit for this.
We strive to have almost perfect grammar when answering questions, or having alternates on a question, so it doesn't matter if it's one little mistake or a big one, move it to the second tier.
You could set the page size to the largest possible and then go to the last page. Supervisors face the same thing. While there is a batch option for sending many questions to the bad spelling/grammar tier, there is no batch option for sending them to the good question tier.
The bad grammar tier, also known as second tier, is the lower level listing of question alternatives. There are a million ways to ask the same question. Ok, maybe not a million, but you get the idea. So, instead of having several of the same question floating around, the secondary questions are added as alternate wordings of the primary question - which will continue to redirect to the primary question as users ask the questions. There are two levels, 1st tier, and 2nd tier (bad grammar), of alternate wordings. First tier can only hold up to 200 different wordings, while the 2nd tier is infinite. Typically, you would want to place all the alternate wordings into the 2nd tier that have misspellings or bad grammar. This will leave room for the proper question alternatives to remain in 1st tier. Both tiers are searched when the user asks a question to see if their question already exists somewhere in the system, and will be redirected to that question if it does. To move alternates to the bad spelling (2nd) tier: # Select the boxes next to each of the misspelled or poorly worded questions. # Click on Move to Bad Spelling Tier.
Laziness.
Go to the alternate you want to add to the second tier and click add to bad spelling tier. The second tier will appear when you tell it to go there. If you are a Supervisor, click the alternate, or alternates, you want to move and click the orange button at the top saying 'move to bad spelling tier'.
The questions on WikiAnswers are not answered instantaneously; nobody is that good. The most common problem is that you haven't written the question properly e.g. bad spelling or grammar (as this question itself demonstrates).
