  1. No memes or images. Exceptions may be made in the case of images of an ongoing news story becoming available.
  2. User-edited titles are not allowed. Copy the headline directly and use it as the post title.
  3. News articles written over a month before posting must have the date of the article in the post title.
  4. No social media/blog/YouTube links. Exceptions may be made if information about an unfolding news story/crisis emerges on Twitter, for example, or if it is the official account of a news source.
  5. No paywalls. Use an archived link to post a paywalled article.
  6. Translate non-English articles.
  7. This is not a hard rule, but please be civil.

We had a small discussion about it ages ago with a little feedback but no rules were made. I took some of the feedback and made this rough draft.

yeah, any mass deletions would need to include all the original thread links as well, maybe archives too, so people can go back and see all the original threads and interact with them.

edit: maybe even require a sticky for a while to make sure the people know

edit2: also a list in the sidebar or link to one that contains links to all megathreads

Hey how difficult would it be for a post and its comment threads to be converted into a comment tree under a megathread? Just shunt the entire conversation over.
