DOUGH FORMATTING CONVENTIONS
PAGE 1 - OP: Welcome and Q-Posts
Q-posts on OP page (page 1)
These are formatted with lines that help vertically align the posts. Q has not posted since Dec 8 2020, but we still have old Q posts that can be used as a template:
Thursday 02.20.2020
>>8200814 rt >>8200718 ————————— You have come far, Anons (Patriots). You are ready. Prepare for the storm (Vid: >>8200841, >>8201027)
>>8200590 rt >>8200492 ————————— Primary purpose of referencing 'Twitter' accounts? TOGETHER you are invincible (Cap: >>8258688)
>>8200462 ————————————–——– The puzzle is coming together. (Cap: >>8200480, >>8200552)

Q drops are always ordered by DAY, from NEWEST TO OLDEST
-
Do not try to do the lines freehand, especially when Q is posting - they never come out right. Instead, use the template.
PAGE 2 - Globals, Notables, Previously Collected & Aggregators
''See CAP for a model of how to format this page. Key thing is formatting of the Notable Buns.''
The other caps show things that can go wrong. Most are easily fixable. To fix a wrong bread number, do a Report - staff will fix.
double and triple check for correct bread number
How to format the notable buns so they can be recognized by scrapers as buns
-
put a blank line above and below each bun
-
do not put a blank line within a bun
-
first line: put a # before the number of each bun: #19623
-
last line: put the link for the final notables bun like so: >>15516951 #19623
Please follow the same formatting you see in the cap for each line in the bun.
How to avoid BODY TOO LONG message
Page 2 generally has too much text to post on one page.
''Do not split buns across pages, breaks the scraping algos.''
Solution: divide page 2 notables into two or more posts.
For extra long notable buns that go over one page
Each bun has got to have a unique number and cannot go over a page.
Solution: split into two parts and divide like this:
#19623-A
first notable
second notable
(etc)
>>4837533 #19623-A

>>4837534 #19623-B
Advise using the above formatting; have been told it works. Do not know about other variations, e.g. #19623/1, #19621/2 (etc).
Checklist after baking
-
Correct bread number at the top?
-
Correct bread numbers on notables buns page?
-
Do they match? (current bread number congruent with bun numbers?)
-
No funny formatting (e.g., extra commas, dead links, etc.)?
-
No duplicate numbers or gaps?
CAPS show some good and bad examples.
