Fix empty custom flags, empty comments, empty suggested edits, and empty bounty summaries.

| Oct 7, 2024 at 17:51 | comment | added | Kyle Pollard StaffMod | As part of the Community Asks sprint, we spent some time fixing the validation in a common library function. It now has an extra check for invisible strings, just like usernames do. I marked the ones that we looked at as fixed, though its possible others have been fixed since it's shared validation logic. | |
| Sep 12, 2022 at 11:03 | comment | added | This_is_NOT_a_forum | Empty is not the same as invisible. For instance, invisible characters, even zero-width, can still (blindly) be selected by Shift + arrow key right (at least in edit views). And copied. If not zero-width it might take up space when rendered. Is this problem about using invisible characters? | |

| Jul 21, 2022 at 22:22 | comment | added | The Amplitwist | @Luuklag Perhaps that reasoning is also applicable to the "no clickable area" issues, since they, too, only occur because of the empty post title/body. Sure, they can be removed from this list if it's clear that they don't need to be tracked. | |
| Jul 21, 2022 at 14:17 | comment | added | Luuklag | I would say that the empty duplicate banner is not a real issue here, since that's just because the post title is empty cc@TheAmplitwist | |

| Jul 21, 2022 at 13:57 | comment | added | JNat StaffMod | Prolly ok to add to the main post, @TheAmplitwist . Also, thanks for filling that table in ^_^ | |
| Jul 21, 2022 at 13:56 | comment | added | The Amplitwist | Some issues have been mentioned only in the comments. These are what I could find: empty comments, no clickable area in followed posts list, broken chat oneboxes, and (apparently) empty duplicate banner. | |
