[Announcement] c/labresults now requires the standard template
c/labresults now requires the standard template. This affects how posts get sorted and removed, so it belongs in the open.
Complained about a rule without proposing anything and was politely pointed at this page. Fair.
Argued against the strict evidence rule for a year. Then read a supplier thread on another site and stopped arguing.
Sorted by controversial for a week and found four of the best threads I have read here.
Please do not ask me what dose you should be on. I genuinely do not know and neither does anyone else here.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Adopted with an amendment, announced with the reasoning. Thank you for writing actual text.
Submissions older than a year are archived: readable, linkable, and closed to new comments. That keeps a three-year-old thread from being reopened with a reply nobody will see in context.
Checked the sponsor disclosure because I assumed it would be vague. It was extremely specific and slightly boring.
Proposed a rule change here with actual wording and it was adopted. That is the process working and it is not fast.

Edited a wiki page for the first time and nothing bad happened, which is apparently the point.
Read the ranking formula out of scepticism and reproduced the ordering in a spreadsheet. It does what it says.
What is the concrete wording you would replace it with?
Small fix — archiving happens at a year, not at six months. It is in the published policy.
a rule you cannot inspect is just a preference
modmail first, always, and the thread second
