Is there a meta wireshark? like meta.stackoverflow or meta.superuser? And how do you address somebody with @ so they get a notification? I just went to https://ask.wireshark.org/questions/27662/how-to-understand-out-of-order-tcp-segments And I tried adding a comment addressing somebody with @ and I didn't get a popup with autocomplete as in stackoverflow or superuser so I guess it doesn't work? Is there any way to address somebody so they get a notification? This question is marked "community wiki". asked 07 Apr '15, 08:58  barlop |

The @ notation should work with a valid username, e.g. @grahamb. I've never seen autocomplete for usernames on this site, so I would guess that it doesn't exist. Finally, a user will only get a notification of user of their name with @ if they have enabled such notifications in their profile, and according to the settings, only if the @name notation is used in a reply to one of their comments. answered 07 Apr '15, 09:42  grahamb ♦ |
No. There's only ask.wireshark.org, not a family of sites like the StackExchange sites and their corresponding "meta." sites. answered 07 Apr '15, 20:28  Guy Harris ♦♦ |
I notice that once a comment is posted it comes up as a link and one sees whether it works / that it worked. so e.g. for joe blogs, hovering over his name showed his profile as joe-blogs doing @joe went to the wrong profile but @joe bloggs then posting the comment, and the profile came up as joe-blogs which is the right one
