Rationale: labels are a valuable way to receive and give feedback, so it would be useful to have more labels-related tools.
This topic deals with labels received by an ordinary user or given by an ordinary user from that user's point of view (as opposed to non-logged-in lurkers, other ordinary users, and users with elevated privileges).
While labels presently only apply to comments, these suggestions would apply to topic labels when they are implemented, and to other labellable content types should any appear.
The “Gilded” page—Issue 423
Suggestion 1. Users can filter their user pages for content labelled
Exemplary
.Unlike all other suggestions, this also applies to users viewing other users' pages, and possibly even to lurkers viewing user pages.
I also suggest that users have an option to automatically expand the
Exemplary
messages when they see their ownExemplary
content.Other labels given TO the user
The common point is that it would help if users observe the feedback given to them by others via labels. In addition, this would prevent label misuse and abuse.
Suggestion 2. Users have an option to observe labels given to their own content along with the label counts.
Suggestion 2a. If comment vote counts remain generally hidden, users should still be able to see the vote counts for their own comments.
Suggestion 3. Users can filter their user pages for content labelled
Malice
(but, of course, they should not be able to seeMalice
messages).Suggestion 4. Users can filter their user pages for content with any label (maybe with further options like All labels vs “Non-major” ones).
Edit: Suggestions 2, 3, and 4 might go with time lags. Namely, labels given to own content are only visible for content older than X minutes (X can be even 1440 or more) and to users with accounts older than Y days.
Labels given BY the user
Suggestion 5. Users have an option to automatically expand the label pane for the content they have already labelled.
Suggestion 6. Users can easily overview the content they labelled
Exemplary
. (This is basically the “Gilded” page in the other direction.) In addition, users can see the messages they provided when givingExemplary
labels.Suggestion 7. Users can easily overview the content they labelled
Malice
. In addition, users can see the messages they provided when givingMalice
labels.P.S. These suggestions deal with the current labels, but they can be extended to future labels, e.g., group-specific ones.

You know, something that, by all accounts, really shouldn't bother you that much but for some reason does. Like when the toilet paper roll is hanging the wrong way. Or when somebody doesn't use multiples of 5 on the timer for the microwave.
- What are your pet peeves?
- Why do you think they bother you so much?
- Can you get past them?
- When other people find out about them do they use them to pester you?
Also, feel free to think past IRL stuff and into online stuff and media. Maybe there's something authors do that rubs you the wrong way, or you're weirdly bothered by a particular TV trope.

Have any of you done these degrees? I'm switching disciplines for my MA, and I want to collect information on this alternative method should I fail that this summer. I'd have a more complete grasp of the field and proceed to a PhD equipped with better knowledge. The price to pay being some time, but I'll probably already have to do my MA---if I manage---in three years b/c the school might want me to take an extra preparatory year going through some undergrad classes.
So, any experiences, any comments, any links highly appreciated!
P.S.: EU information appreciated, that's been significantly harder to get at.
