Hi Guys. When a Contest Ends I See a Lot of People Asking "How to Solve C Problem" or Any Problem. And Since Comment Section is Huge, Sometimes Its Hard to Find Where it is, Because Sometimes People Ask This Same Question in a Different Way/Sentence. So Searching Through That FIND Option is Harder.

So In a Contest, There is Two Things in Right Corner. They are 1) Announcement 2) Editorial. I Suggest to Add One More Thing Like "Contestant's Editorial" or Call it any Name. So it Would Like This 1) Announcement 2) Official Editorial 3) Contestant's Editorial.

This Contestant's Editorial Section Should Be Opened Immediately, Once The Contest Ends. And in That, Comment Section Opened For Each And Every Problem Asked In That Contest. Like Problem A Should Have Dedicated Comment Section For it, Problem B Should Have Dedicated Comment Section For it and so on ....... For Each and Every Problem. And Also it Should Have Upvotes option.

Making This Would Actually Help A Lot For All People. So I Request MikeMirzayanov To Add This Feature.

I actually really like this idea. When I don't understand an editorial, I always go to the comment section hoping for a alternative editorial, and I almost always find it there, sometimes it just takes some time to do so. And having a separate section for this kind of thing sounds really cool

This would be really cool. Many times it's hard to find the comments about the questions your looking for.

Thats an definately an awesome Suggestion! It would also be helpful to know different approaches to a single question !

    We can certainly live without this feature, but codeforces will only get better with it.

Very awesome suggestion. It will be really very helpful.

This new feature should be one of the most prioritized among the list of new upcoming features.

I hope Mike sees this and takes some action.

Also that many people come up with very nice/easier/more intuitive alternative approaches and these approaches are dispersed in the comment section.

This feature would also encourage people to write about their alternative approaches.

If this feature is implemented, we will see much more nice/easier/more intuitive alternative approaches.

Can't wait to see the contrast between the Contestant's Editorial Section of Problem B/C and Problem F.

A Really Cool Feature That Will Help The Community Is To Make You Stop Writing Blogs In Such A Ridiculous Way. Capital Letters Are Used Most Commonly With The Start Of The Sentence And With Names.

    Unnecessarily rude, but true. Blog should have been formatted properly.

This is great, I have seen this feature working in AtCoder and it is surprisingly helpful in the sense that unofficial editorials are uploaded almost immediately after a contest, as opposed to the official one which may take a day or so
