I think half-baked articles should be entirely okay in Discussion although not in Main, because you often need help / brainstorming to work it out or test some aspects, and Discussion is just the ideal place for it. IMHO Discussion should be seen as a community bakery baking each others half-baked ideas then promoting to Main when done.

I somewhat strongly agree. Regardless of what the "official" policy is, I think it should be made much more explicit. I sense that a lot of people are reluctant to post because they're holding themselves to too high a standard.
