Posting what I said over on the other thread that I should have shared here instead,
I’m guessing it has to do with differences in translation and word usage across languages, coupled with being unfamiliar with what the PSF is.
It would be a good idea to at the very least mention “help” in the description of the Users category, so it is clear it is the place to ask such questions, and maybe shortening the PSF category name to just the initialism, which would avoid users who are not familiar with it from seeing “Python” and accidentally posting there, while not being harder to understand for those who know what it is, or who read/understand the description.
Additionally, we could consider adding a new “Python Help” category or similar as the first or second entry, focused on help with the Python language and the standard library, and/or renaming the existing users category to such and creating a new Users category as a catchall for discussions that don’t fit into the other categories, as the Users category also is now. I think that might be a good idea, to avoid overwhelming general-interest posts like @steve.dower 's in the flood of user questions, but that’s a somewhat bigger change.
@admins , thoughts?
