Format and post handling (self.faqs)

Looking for any input on title formatting for posting a FAQ and other ways to fill out the repository. Should we only have the mods of the communities able to poste their own FAQs or should we be able to post them ourselves. How do we stop duplicates etc. Brainstorm away, there are no stupid questions/ideas

First of all, I really appreciate the work you are doing so thank you! My only thought was that instead of posting direct links, maybe have the post titles be general categories and then list links and details in the body?

For example, you could have one post be "Piracy Resources" and in the body you could link to the 'Piracy FAQ' and a blurb about what it is, and then also link to 'FreeMediaHeckYa' with a blurb about what one would find there.

Another example could be a main post of "General Lemmy Resources" which could contain links to the '‘Beginner’s Guide to Lemmy’ Collection' and the 'Awesome Lemmy' links.

That way, people could browse resources by category and leave links to similar resources in the comments with an info blurb and you could add the links to the post in an edit?

Thank you, that doesn’t sound like a bad idea and I’ll post a couple like that to see how it’s received. Appreciate the input!
