| Dec 10, 2015 at 17:39 | comment | added | YviDe | Most, really? At least on SO it's not recommended. meta.stackexchange.com/questions/8231/… that's a part of the FAQ and while it mostly deals with "link only" answers, answers that just contain all link and a quote from it have the same problem of not act providing context | |
| Dec 10, 2015 at 17:35 | comment | added | Franck Dernoncourt | @HDE226868 So in what cases such answers are removed here? (most SE websites are fine with unexplained quotes.) | |
| Dec 10, 2015 at 16:45 | comment | added | HDE 226868 | The answer contains a block quote with a link. I'm guessing that this prompted the warning, because the quote itself is not explained - generally a policy of Stack Exchange. | |
