For new topics:
- Presentation of guides / tutorials / insightful topics where many people could be interested in
- Innovative giveaways
Comments in existing topics:
- Is your comment helpful for OP?
- Contributing interesting content and providing insights instead of just rehashing what’s already been said / uninteresting fluff / guessing needlessly
For new and existing topics:
- Dividing your article / topic into meaningful sections, using sub-headlines, highlighting important parts. Nobody wants to read a text block of 10-15 consecutive lines
- Exposing and removing spam and scam [1]
- Using pictures / tables / lists, to visualize complex content [3]
- Good Memes.
I've started seeing too many guides/tutorials made by people who don't know the matter deep enough, hence they're full of mistakes misguiding newbies into making errors.
So I strongly advise those who are unsure about their new topics, add at least a "please tell about the errors so I can update the first post" disclaimer, to avoid harsh replies.
Also I tend to give more credit to an useful answer, even if it may be an one-liner, than a meme.
But overall you're correct (although I expect exactly the worse shitposters won't read or won't care about this kind of guidelines).
DT support
Our campaign is intended to be a very broad and international campaign, so it would be useful if we can present it at our local boards as a campaign supported by many DT members.
If your are a frequent DT member, we would be happy to receive your endorsement.
I think that this is wrong and can be misinterpreted (I see that some already thought that you're asking for trust feedback). Also DT comes and goes, the list can be reshuffled and one will no longer be DT for a while (especially if DT2).
I think that you need this from all users, especially Merit Sources (although some don't like to say they're merit sources) and users with high amount of merit, i.e. those who may actually merit those posts.
So:
I’m in support of improving posting quality as suggested by 1miau and GazetaBitcoin.
but I say this not as DT, but as user of bitcointalk.
