Clickbait:

I understand not wanting to “editorialize” the author’s title, and it’s even forbidden in some communities. That’s fine, just include something in the text, or possibly append it to the end of the title in brackets. ie:

Scientists have unveiled the secret to long life using this one weird trick! [diet and exercise]

Probably 90% of articles I come across can be summarized in 1-2 sentences. I often find myself doing just that, in other people’s posts, but putting it in the comments makes it far less visible.

Sources:

Please do not link your post to a source of a source. Sometimes I have to click 3 and 4 articles deep to find the original source. Many times they don’t include the original source, or any other source to speak of, they just link back to their own publication a dozen fucking times. If you come across an article that links to another source, which also isn’t the original source, and without adding meaningful context, just link to the original source, please.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
