One of the unique feature of Tildes when it comes to content moderation is the usage of "labels". While there are guidelines, there are no hard and fast rules as to when to use one label or the other (nor should there be!). I am curious what criteria you all use when deciding whether or not to apply a label to a comment, and also how frequently you find yourself labeling things. For reference, the current labels are:
- Exemplary
- Offtopic
- Joke
- Noise
- Malice
Are there labels you find yourself using more than others? Are there some you think are unclear? I feel like this is an often overlooked and underused feature, but that may just be because I personally do not use them that frequently. For example, I have only given a few Exemplary tags, a few noise, and I don't think any of the others.

What do we think about posting Wikipedia articles to Tildes?
I personally find it uselful in certain cases, like getting an overview of areas where we have many solutions to a problem, like who should the Democratic nominee be or how should we make money.

1917 editor Lee Smith reveals the truth about Sam Mendes' one-shot film
This is my favourite passage from this article:
He asked [a journalist] how long the film shoot was; she looked at her notes, said four months. How many days a week? Five.
Do you think they never turned the camera off, he said; just do the maths. "And she went, 'Oh, right'."
