Community guidelines

Good questions

• One clear question with fair options. “Which would you buy?” works; “Isn’t X obviously better?” does not.
• About products, services, work, performances, policies and everyday choices.

Not allowed

• Polls on who will win an election, or on parties and candidates.
• Allegations about named people or businesses (“Is Dr X a fraud?”). Celeb and Local polls use templates for this reason.
• Celebrities’ personal lives. Ask about their work only.
• Hate, or polls that target a community, caste or religion.
• Personal information such as phone numbers or addresses.
• Spam, fake votes, vote buying, or coordinated brigading.
• Images you do not own or have a licence for.
