| Apr 12, 2020 at 14:22 | comment | added | Dr. Wolfgang Hintze | I have given my first downvote to an answer (math.stackexchange.com/questions/908108/…, fomula (4)) because the author has not shown any action to remove a plainly wrong formula despite the fact that the error was noted by many users, and I think it should be avoided that other users employ the wrong formula (which already happened). Unformtunately, the moderation has not taken notice. To get punished for trying to improve quality- even though it is only by -1 point - is strange. | |

| Nov 1, 2013 at 13:20 | comment | added | user642796 Mod | @Sawarnik: In a perfect world this would be a temporary deduction. Should the answer be deleted, the 1pt of reputation would be restored. Should the answer be edited to be better, you could remove your downvote and restore that point. The main reason, I believe, is to discourage people from downvoting too much, and for inappropriate reasons. (See this old, old, old MSO thread.) | |
