Confirming "Share"

Sometimes, when I am working on a project that isn't complete yet, I accidentally press the button “Share”.
When a user presses the button “Share”, have them confirm it. That way users don't unintentionally share their project as easily.

To my knowledge, this would be fairly simple for the Scratch Team to implement.


Additional Notes

Why not just unshare the project immediately?
There still would be a notice on “What I've been doing” stating that the user shared that project. It would also appear on the “Recently Shared” section located on the front page. Answer by Dreamo and Prinseskat

This feature could be annoying to some scratchers. Thank you for pointing this out, PrincessPandaLover!
Possible Solution: Scratchers could change whether or not they wish to have it. This setting could be changed on the “My Stuff” (or “Account Settings”) page. By default, it would be set to yes.

Well you could just unshare it right away.

I think this would be a good idea. It would be very easy to program. Just add a javascript confirm.

Even if you do unshare it right away, a link still appears in your “What I've Been Doing” which can be annoying to some (including me).

Wow, the vastness of thy knowledge sways me!

No, you're right, it would be easy, however an HTML div would be a better route, because you could then style it nicely, like all the current scratch pop-ups.

Support. I did this once and my title was something really weird because I always give my unshared projects weird titles, don't ask.

I love that idea! It should default to upload as “UNSHARED.”

Support, yes, much support!
