What makes a good Connect post?

:warning: This is an unofficial initiative by myself to try and understand what you think makes a good Connect post!

Update (14 Nov): @Rednewt74 brought up a good point regarding deadlines. So I am going to recommend the following:

  • Deadline for answers: 21 Nov
  • Deadline for voting: 25 Nov

So feel free to pause on your voting until the 22 Nov so that you can vote on all suggested answers from the community. Thanks :+1:t4:

Hey everyone!

It’s been just over 2 weeks now since the new Connect was launched and I hope that everyone is settling in well! If you’re struggling to use the new Connect, please do check the various posts from the Local Guides team and also the Transition Tutorials that @MortenCopenhagen have been working very hard on!

As a Connect moderator, I’ve seen a mix of good quality posts :+1:, not so good quality posts :sweat_smile: and off-topic posts :upside_down_face: and I’m thinking of ways to help guide the community in this matter, starting with this poll to get your feedback!

You can access the poll here. And in it, the instruction are:

:speaking_head: Have a look at all the answers submitted so far. Then vote for the answer(s) that you agree with.

If you cannot see your answer(s) in the lists, then feel free to add them. Please only add one point per submission so that we can vote for each point independently. You can add as many points as you want.

It’ll make more sense when you see the poll; basically I’m trying to avoid duplicate answers.

Anyway, do share the poll or this topic with other Local Guides (you can tag them in the replies below) or share them with your community via your group chats. It’ll be good to get as much feedback as possible. Thanks!

@AdrianLunsong,
Thank you for the tag and for a great idea. I’m clarifying for myself.
I see that when I go back in my previous answers are shown. If I change my mind or see a point that is better, can I change my vote?
Since there will be new points being added, we should revisit the poll to see if there are additional points we want to vote for?
How long will the poll be open?

@TerryPG I’ve updated the feedback request with a couple of deadlines. Hope it’s enough time for everyone.

And if you need help with Connect, let me know how I can assist. I am organising online knowledge sharing sessions for the Connect Moderators in the coming weeks. And if the community needs one, I can do the same but it might be in December.

@AdrianLunsong,
2 more things
Ideas added in a language besides English do not have translation icons.
(the change in how translation works is my biggest issue with the new connect}
Are you able to edit and add the English version?
Did you create this using the Connect poll feature?
