It seems that nodes are being front paged lately as if
some monks haven't read Friar or how to use the moderation system. Either
that or serious XP whoring is going on.
This has come up before (see previous discussion nodes),
but we seem to have a lot more friars+ now, so we have
more eyes for the approval process.
My proposal is to either make it a part of
Nodes to Consider or as a seperate section. The criteria
for showing it on the frontpage could be:
Approval first.
Can't FP your own. If it's good for the FP, it will get there
Five votes to FP
Positive rep (greater than 2? Function of NORM?)
No edit votes.
If it hangs out in NTC for a week,
drop it from consideration.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
