Editorial Policy

Askaboutmoney has developed a reputation for civilised and informed discussion of financial topics in a sponsorship-free and advertising-free environment. 99% of contributors respect and value this reputation and welcome the editing of posts which damage our reputation. Moderators use their collective discretion to decide when and how to deal with posts which are adjudged to breach the posting guidelines. In general the following rules apply: Adverts are deleted Posts which the moderators consider to be offensive are edited Potentially defamatory posts are edited Discussion of the valuation of specific shares is edited Posts which identify or hint at the identification of another poster are edited Moderators do not edit posts simply because they disagree with the opinions expressed therein. It should be possible to discuss contentious matters without attacking the person expressing the opinion. The moderators don’t particularly enjoy editing offensive posts. They enjoy asking and answering questions as much as any other poster. Where we have time, we explain why we edit posts, but we do not enter into discussion on our editorial decisions. As registered users can edit their own posts, a moderator may point out to them what is offensive about their post and invite them to edit it themselves.
