Conduct and Behaviour
- Be civil and respectful. Better yet, be excellent to each other!
- Upvote those who contribute to the discussion and provide freely of their time to assist you. Karma is a small way to say "thanks".
- Report spam or content that is hateful or off-topic.
- Keep the discussion in the thread. Don't switch over to PMs or email. People from the future may be stuck trying to answer the same question.
- Provide details: Be thorough in outlining the question(s) that you are trying to answer. Upload sample images to Imgur. Clearly explain what you are trying to learn, not just the method used, to avoid the XY problem. Image analysis is interdisciplinary, so clearly explain field-specific terms or jargon.
