Apech Posted January 30, 2013 My understanding is that the articles section (which is under used I think) is for bits of original writing about interesting topics. Its not meant to be general discussion but obviously there will be questions to the author about original article and so on and other people will join in sometimes. But if it is to make any sense really it can't devolve into a wide ranging discussion. I would suggest that if/when this does happen that bit is split into general discussion. I noticed yesterday the opposite happened where a bit of a general discussion - some posts by Decibelle were moved into Articles but without any explanation or editing ... which was a bit puzzling. Could the mods (who I assume moved this content) explain why this happened and also confirm my understanding of the use of Articles. Also why were decibelles comments about lineages moved to there? Why were they moved at all - as they are clearly part of an exchange. I'm a bit confused. ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted February 1, 2013 There's so much poetry in there I could see a special Poems subform. Then I'd be able to argue against it in a Tighten up the Format section . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poems sub is a nice idea too, though the amount of subs is an issue for some.. they could easily profilerate endlessly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
