Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

The list is disappointingly missing many variants, such as:

  1. The Spork (an invention commonly attributed to Samuel W. Francis, but which remains in doubt)
  2. The Knork, from the popular show Knork and Knindy (knanu-knanu)
  3. Neptune's trident (four out of five dentists recommend it)
  4. Cluster fork (as experienced by yours truly at least once per fortnight when production goes down)
  5. The most ancient and purest form of all: the monofork, aka kebap skewer

The knork was invented by Abraham Lincoln and Gandhi.
