| May 22, 2014 at 22:21 | comment | added | rumtscho | You may also want to make some rule that a question of this sort should be very focused. On Cooking we had a problem with people who want nutrition advice, but we were able to draw the line at "how does food affect your body is off topic". So, we take questions like "does kale have more vitamin B than a banana", but close "Is eating kale good for you". You obviously cannot use that rule. Still, you want to have a way to allow questions like "how is starch digested" but probably close "why does eating starch make you fatter than eating protein" and even worse, "is eating starch bad for you". | |

| May 17, 2014 at 12:13 | comment | added | biogirl | I think "how" and "why" questions should be allowed but not "what" questions. For eg. How viruses cause cold ? but not what should I do if I get cold ? | |
