This answer is posted by a staff member, but you have to go to the user's profile to actually see that.

Can we add [Staff] labels to staff member flairs like on all meta sites? [♦ Mod] labels aren't necessary IMHO, rene and I are just experienced users of the API, nothing more.

    I confirm I did visit the user profile as well for the exact same reason. Commented Apr 20, 2022 at 16:37
  • Agreed, that sounds quite useful here as staff often act as an authoritative source on API matters. Commented Apr 21, 2022 at 17:17

    Agreed that this seems useful. On other Meta sites, I believe the Mods can add the status-review tag to a Meta post for Staff to review a change request. Does that work here, or perhaps not since this isn't considered a Meta site? Not sure. Commented Apr 27, 2022 at 19:51

    @NotTheDr01ds that would work, but it feels rather strange to put a [status-review] on my own request. Of course I can ask rene :) Commented Apr 27, 2022 at 19:53

    @NotTheDr01ds StackApps is a little special (in a good sense of the word) in that regards - kind of like MSE, the mod-only tags are present despite this not being a Meta site. Commented Apr 27, 2022 at 20:02

    Just confirming that the status-review tag on this post did add it to our radar. :) Commented May 4, 2022 at 17:33

Tada! 🎉 This was an easy change on our end, it turns out we already had functionality to turn this on for individual sites. Our code doesn't define Stack Apps as a Meta site so Stack Apps doesn't get it by default, it's a special case.

    I'll make sure to code in a special case to our special case so that the joke is preserved 🤠 bool IsMetaSite => IsChildMeta || IsMetaStackExchange || (IsStackApps && question.Id != 9377) Commented May 25, 2022 at 0:06

    Happy to hear that - I love how the [status-review] tag gets it triaged and in front of us so quickly. Commented May 25, 2022 at 0:15

    Always nice to be able to verify that it works at the very place one asked for it. Thanks for the quick fix! Commented May 25, 2022 at 7:37

This request will be and we hope to have this completed in the near term in a future sprint.

    Oh, the irony of staff not being displayed as staff :) Thanks for working on it! Commented May 18, 2022 at 16:10
