It might help if the guidelines for what goes in which area were made more obvious and clarified. Then people could see what they were doing wrong.
It seems that over time a lot of stuff that used to go in main has moved into discussion, and former discussion into the open thread. Which is fine, provided everyone is using the same standard.
There aren't strict guidelines, but if something isn't much upvoted and/or doesn't seem very important, I'll move it to Discussion. Trying to post to Main is not a crime. On the other hand, moving things back from Discussion to Main after an editor moves them is a crime.
What about the reverse? Moving from discussion to Main once the author notices that not only his introspective evidence says the text is good, but also others?
I have been known to do that as well.
you read all posts?
Upvoted ones, usually.
I know my question sounded like "I doubt you read all posts", and I do, but regardless of that irrelevance, the important meaning should be: "Someone over 18 whose IQ looms large reads all posts?"
Isn't it a terrible use of your time?
Do you read posts before moving them out of Main?
I'm confused. Phil seems to indicate that it wasn't him who moved the post to main. Is there some other way that this could have occurred that does not require anyone to have been deceptive?
wedrifid has seen this, but for the benefit of others: this is now answered in the discussion behind the link in wedrifid's comment.
