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.

We have a few already but if your team isn't here then get it started.

If you are wondering whether to start one for a bitter rival, you might want to ask yourself why: if your motives are pure (to provide balance) then go ahead but probably think about finding moderators who are fans, if they are less so then find another community on here to start - there's not a shortage after all.

Key:

  • M = moderators needed

Currently we have:

English Premier League:

Yes, we do currently have three communities for Newcastle United, might want to have a moratorium on creating more, possibly even think about a merger.

Scottish Premier League

  • Aberdeen
  • Celtic
  • Dundee
  • Hearts
  • Hibernian
  • Kilmarnock
  • Livingston
  • Motherwell
  • Rangers
  • Ross County
  • St Johnstone
  • St Mirren

I created Burnley (as you've kindly linked to) but am happy to make more for other teams then hand over to an actual supporter of those teams when they show up.

That's great thanks. I'll make Liverpool and Everton later. I suppose the other "local" teams to you would be Man U and Man City.

Have made United but for some reason the site is taking an age to respond when I tried to make City. Will try again later.

Also, EFL sides probably need sorting.

Clearly the admin is a Man U fan!

Also, EFL sides probably need sorting.

Any suggestions are welcome as it's a bit outside by wheelhouse.

Just found this. Someone else has made it anyway.

[–] Emperor 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well found. It's now on the list.

Also explains why Lemmy wouldn't let me make it earlier (I'd given it the exact same name)

Ah, good point

Thanks but that's at lemmy.ml - there's another at lemmy.world too.
