This is a work in progress since I've never created my own community nor moderated one. Bare with me, but the goal is to create a reference community for data and sources. All logic all the time. While I get this built and you'd like to post something that seems on brand, then go right ahead. However, here are some starter rules
- No NSFW
- No bigotry (this is a coverall. I'm a stickler for phrasing, so choose your words carefully).
- Debate, don't debase
- It's another person on the other side of the screen. Golden Rule applies
- No bias unless it is part of the data and you remain neutral in any description you create.
- Citations are required.
- No insults (back-handed or otherwise).
- Curse/cuss/swear all you want, BUT curse to people. Not at them.
- Trolling, brigading, targeting, harassment will not be tolerated. ZERO tolerance
- None of us are perfect, so if your argument in a certain case comes to nothing, admit that. You'll get more respect and appreciation for learning something rather than rage quitting a discussion
- It's only me on the mod team so far, so please use best judgement to report things. That way, I can respond to the issues in a timely fashion

MODERATORS
“The United States leads the world in new medical innovations.”
What national body defines and measures this metric? How does this metric translate across nations? Is there an international body that similarly defines and measures this metric?
Merely creating something without considering its impact is not something that should be considered when trying to make the overall point.
Fantastic questions. I created this community for people like you to bring further data to the table
