How to Nominate a Notable and Help Your Bakers
-
Have you checked to see if your nom has already been notabled? Handy tool: https://qresear.ch/
Be sure to scroll down the page. Your search terms will appear in red.
-
Does your nom have a working link? If there is no link, there is no notable.
-
Does the link work? Did you open it? If the link is broken or doesn't work, there is no notable.
-
IF you want to nominate something older, use the date:'From 2018' or 'reminder' in your description
-
If your notable is a graphic, chart or side by side it still needs a description re: Why it is notable
-
Some discussions are notable - inclusion of discussions as notable is up to the Baker.
-
Relevant Digs with sourced information and live links are usually notable.
-
Self nominations are generally discouraged. Try posting your info x 3 different breads. If you still get no love, you got no love. Move on.
Doing It

Start a new reply
-
Line 1 of your notable - Baker Notable or if you prefer, use red text
-
Line 2 of your notable - tag the post you're nominating and Include a short Why It Is Notable statement on the same line with a space between the tag and your statement. (Should look like a single line in the notables section of the bread)
"Notable AF" does not count as a 'why it is notable' statement and neither does ^^^^^^.
That's it. Sounds easy, is easy.
So why doesn't everyone do it?
