Community Forum
Community Moderation Policy
Define Formalint forum rules for safe samples, respectful technical discussion, no secrets, no spam and practical developer help. It helps developers ask better questions, preserve useful evidence and keep public examples safe enough to share.
Use this when
- You want another developer to understand the issue without guessing.
- You need to remove secrets and private data before sharing evidence.
- You want the final answer to become a reusable Formalint-style reference.
Practical workflow
| Step | What to include |
|---|---|
| Protect private data | Remove credentials, tokens, cookies, personal data and customer records from every example. |
| Keep it technical | Threads should help someone debug, validate, format, deploy or understand a developer workflow. |
| Reject spam | Thin promotional content and unrelated links reduce trust for users and crawlers. |
| Prefer closure | Good threads end with the fix, limitation or next safe diagnostic step. |

Use safe examples
Keep answers technical and reproducibleSafety checklist
- Remove passwords, tokens, cookies, private keys and connection strings.
- Replace customer records with tiny synthetic examples.
- Keep exact error text, versions, command output and timestamps when safe.
- Say what changed after the fix so the answer helps future readers.
Good forum content is not long by default. It is specific, safe, reproducible and useful after the first reader leaves.
