I'd like to send another reminder to everyone that this topic is not the place to debate why suggestions are rejected or to try to propose solutions for rejected suggestions. I went onto this topic this morning expecting that the several pages of unread posts from this week were about the changes to the Terms of Service, but most of the posts were actually arguing about whether 3D Scratch should be implemented.

It's one thing to ask for clarification as to why a suggestion was rejected; that is fine. But at the end of the day, 3D Scratch is rejected, full stop. Discussion and arguments about it in this thread are not going to accomplish anything, because this is just a list of suggestions that the Scratch Team has rejected.

If you have a solution to 3D Scratch, you are welcome to make a new thread in the Suggestions forum about it, while clearly explaining what the solution is and how it solves the problems that caused it to be rejected. If you would like to debate with others about whether or not a certain suggestion should be implemented, please use your profile comments for this debate, and not this thread.
Also, many of the rejected suggestions have solutions, but they are often ignored.

Hello, the Scratch DACH Wiki Authors now have finished the localization for this list.

I have implemented it as an Wiki-Article so it can be edited by anyone with an Scratch-DACH-Wiki-Account.
It took me around 3 Weeks to do it all.

Can you merge #10.2 and #6.3 together, they seem pretty similar

They are similar, but 6.3 shows comments on the main site, while 10.2 shows quotes on forums. I think the difference is too major to be merged.

7.4 Relax or remove the extension policy
Browser extensions, userscripts, and userstyles are not allowed to be mentioned on Scratch as per the extension policy. Although such extensions may be useful, it is not easy to tell if the extension is harmful to your device. The Scratch Team believes that the potential risks and harm in allowing browser extensions outweigh the benefits, and are not looking for ways to improve this policy. This includes browser extensions, userscripts, and userstyles made by anyone, including Scratchers or well-known companies like Google.
Being banned from advertising extensions, I can completely understand that. But being banned from even mentioning them, I do not understand at all. Imagine if we couldn't mention any third-party websites, because they could have some sort of malware that harms our computer.

the problem with that is it's very hard for the filter to know if you're advertising the extension or just mentioning it (and even then, someone could get curious and search it up)

Not always, people say tech is “improved” when it normally can’t do much. With AI, it almost always feeds you misinformation or makes awful images. And this is still considered the “latest in tech” and “wowzers it’s so new”

the only way you could do this somewhat consistently is with ai, which the scratch team does not want to replace the filterbot with

Minor suggestion: in 9.7, change “play the project” to “access the project” since Scratch isn't only for games.
