@Mayer I agree, an answer is an answer even if it's redundant, weak, or wrong and shouldn't be immediately deleted. Upvoting keeps the good stuff at the top and "me too" answers should just be attached as comments to the OP. (Deleting to de-clutter seems like a slippery slope, not that I don't trust our mods' judgement @pccheese .)

But it sounds like it's about time to start putting together some formal guidelines. Especially after reading through some of the other disucssions from this weekend. I'll start outlining some things with @kaykay when she gets back next week and we'll reach out to everyone for feedback. Sound good?
Oh also, Hi! I'm Kelsea. I moved out of the EDU team and onto @kay-kay 's Outreach team a few months ago. You'll see me in META and in the forums more in the future. :)
