| Jan 15, 2021 at 17:33 | comment | added | divibisan | @DavidSiegel On Meta sites, downvotes signify disagreement. The downvote you got is likely from someone who disagrees with you that this question is on-topic, not necessarily from someone who thinks this is a bad question | |

| Jan 15, 2021 at 16:04 | comment | added | David Siegel | I should like to ask why this was downvoted. I am asking why a particular question, and by extension others like it, is thought off-topic by some, as I cannot see a valid reason for this. If ther is a problem with how I expressed this, please explain so i can improve the question. | |
