Request a Feddit.uk community

If you see a need for a community on Feddit.uk then the best advice is to start it. If you need help, then post a message requesting volunteers to pitch in on the moderating. Don't worry too much though there's plenty of people around who can advise the important thing is to get the ball rolling.

However, if you think Feddit.uk needs a community but you aren't in a position to help it get started then this is the community for you. Start a new post with the idea and then, when someone starts it they can throw a link in.

Not quite a request but seeing what people thought.

Do we need a UK News community?

At the moment we have:

But nothing for the main news. At the moment unitedkingdom@feddit.uk is scooping up most of it.

We touched on this area previously.

On the other hand, this sets up for the future we probably we want to end up with,

That's my thinking - sketch out the structure now, get everyone in the habit of posting to the right places and everything should scale smoothly.

and it will be really hard to split communities later down the line, i.e. would we put a rule in c/UnitedKingdom banning news posts and tell people to move to c/UKNews? I dont think it would go down well.

I think they'll live and we should have tools available to move posts to other communities, so a few noses will be out of joint for a bit but nothing deal breaking.
