| nhandler | I was just wondering, what do you guys think about having a small button next to each story on planet.ubuntu.com to submit it to the fridge? That way, people could easily/quickly submit interesting stories they see there | 02:39 |
|---|---|---|
| MTecknology | nhandler: kind of a spiffy idea but i can see it being abused pretty easily | 06:32 |
| nhandler | MTecknology: Well, I'm not sure about that. Even some of the new stuff we added to ubuntu-news to allow people to submit stories have had very little abuse. All submissions would need to be reviewed, and with a recaptcha or something, I don't think we have bot submissions | 14:09 |
| MTecknology | nhandler: I didn't even think about bots; I meant users on the planet that think their story should be on the fridge too | 14:49 |
| nhandler | MTecknology: Well, right now, we get almost no submissions of stories, so I think we would welcome getting "too many" submissions. It wouldn't take more than a quick glance to determine whether it is appropriate to be published | 14:54 |
| MTecknology | what about if the button was for a vote? once 3 people clicked it, it gets submitted? | 14:55 |
| MTecknology | I can see that getting abused to, but that'd make it much harder | 14:56 |
| MTecknology | I like the idea, just tossing out extra thoughts :) | 14:56 |
| nhandler | MTecknology: Do you think enough users would actually vote for any story to get 3 votes? That would also require a bit more work on the planet side | 16:23 |
| MTecknology | i have no idea what to expect from people | 16:28 |
