MODERATORS
 

This community was created in reaction to the reddit API fiasco that is currently on-going. I admittedly don't really have any previous experience as an online community moderator, nor do I have any plans set in stone for this space. Please feel free to use this thread to comment any suggestions or things you'd like to see in this community, or otherwise just say hi!

Cette communauté a été créée en réponse au fiasco actuel concernant l'API de reddit. J'avoue que je n'ai pas particulièrement d'expérience en modération de communauté virtuelle, et que je n'ai pas encore de plans concrets pour cet espace. SVP commentez ce thread avec vos suggestions, le genre de choses que vous aimeriez voir dans cette communauté, ou simplement pour dire bonjour!

SUCK IT NEW JERSEY WE GOT HERE FIRST 😤

I've always been tickled by the fact that there's not only a New Brunswick in New Jersey, there is in fact also a New Jersey in New Brunswick.

Greetings fellow Maritimers. Islander here and excited to see our communities grow.

Welcome! I'm actually planning on visiting PEI for the first time this summer, do a little bicycle tour around the island! Do you have any suggestions on things to check out? :) I'm particularly interested in nature spots, history, and cultural stuff but I'd love to hear anything you think is worth a visit for a tourist!

Island Trails is a good place to start if you'd like to do some hiking. I actually started the PEI subreddit aswell and we made a Google map with a bunch of local favorites if you'd like to check that out.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wow I'm definitely saving that map, thanks a bunch!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

No problem, glad I could help!

Howdy :) Just subscribed!

I'm not currently in New Brunswick, but I grew up there and continue to visit as often as I can.

Je lance les premières idées; j'aimerais que cette communauté soit plus ouverte au bilinguisme que /r/newbrunswickcanada. Ca serait cool pouvoir avoir des discussions inter-langues, on a tous•tes accès à des outils de traduction quand même. Perso, j'vais essayer de contribuer dans les deux langues officielles, surtout si j'agis en tant que modérateur.

Deuxièmement, pour faire écho d'une suggestion je vois souvent sur reddit; si quelqu'un partage un article caché derrière un paywall (disons le Telegraph Journal), cette personne devrait-elle copier-coller l'article dans les commentaires?

I'll throw a couple of ideas; I'd love for this community to be more open to bilingualism than /r/newbrunswickcanada. It'd be cool to be able to discuss in both official languages, we all have access to translation tools nowadays. Personally, I'll try to participate in both French and English, especially if acting as a moderator.

Secondly, to echo a common suggestion I see on reddit; if someone shares an article hidden behind a paywall (let's say the Telegraph Journal), should they copy/paste the article into the comments?

100% d'accord pour un bilinguisme intégral. Ce que je veux dire, si t'es pas à l'aise en français, écrit ton post en anglais mais on peut répondre en français.

Idem de l'autre côté, on peut recevoir des réponses en anglais si la compréhension du français est adéquate mais que la personne ne veut pas tenter sa chance à l'écrit.

Et oui, copier-coller pour les sources payantes.

I'm not from NB but thought I'd say hello.
