This was clarified.

I understood the description. I also appreciated how the solution with Best Practices solved for both possibilities: less than 3 and greater than/equal to three.

If this is just right for some users, a hundred existing kata already are just right for them.

From the Kata Best Practices - Make sure content is new:

Is the concept behind this kata novel?
Every new kata should ideally teach something different.

Really, Hello John is not new, if is not new, and the combination is not new.

I would fully agree there should be a playing / testing ground for ( beginner ) kata authors. But that was not the defence of the author. The market for beginner kata is highly oversaturated.

The tests did not only use Test.expect, they only tested if the result of checkRel was true-ish.
I fixed that and added random tests.

@JohanWiltink I agree that this is a very easy kata, but I can imagine that it would be just right for some users who have just started programming. IMHO that's what kyu 8 is for.
@choppedchickenneck With a current satisfaction rating of 67% I doubt that this kata will ever make it out of beta.

Oh yeah I'll clarify on that

Putting the originality of kata idea aside, the specification of this kata is seriously lacking.

What counts as not related? What counts as parent? What counts as sibling?

Made 8 kyu as per request. And this is a beginner kata for a reason. Shouldn't even be noticed by veterans in the first place

The only grammar error I see is a minor error in the verb agreement properties and matches.

Idk how to create random tests, I barely got here. This is why the kata is open for contribution.

Ex cathedra:

8 kyu kata represent a beginner level. At this level the kata is only challenging for users new to programming. This includes programming tasks such as:

• Defining a simple function (i.e. hello world)

• Basic variable assignments
• Fixing basic syntax issues
• Trivial algorithms such as basic if/else statements

What makes this kata 7 kyu in your opinion?

No random tests, fixed tests with Test.expect, grammar error in one of the templates, completely uninteresting programming exercise. It's "Hello John" with some ifs.

Please, do better.

No, they aren't. The tests work fine. 4201 persons have solved it for javascript.

Holy Mother of hackaton programmers!

Wasted half an hour debugging when this kata's test is broken. Fml

JESUS

Apparently it was understandable enough for 20k+ more people, but if you want to suggest some smoother wording, be my guest.
