Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

- There were two questions, both with flags and several downvotes (no upvotes). One was deleted for plagiarism. The other included a bunch of links and asked for counter-arguments; it was broad and vague and the question here did not contain the salient points. People would have had to go read half a dozen other articles in order to (maybe) figure out what the question was. It felt more like a "prove them wrong!" challenge than an actual question, and we didn't feel it was salvagable.
- There's now a Finance proposal with a significant scope description, so I hope people will ask questions that fit with that scope and meet all the other baseline expectations for questions.

- I was asked in a comment for the text, so that people could review our actions. One of them, as I said, was plagiarized, so I won't repost that one -- I'd be repeating the appropriation of someone else's work. Here is the text of the other, with links redacted:

- > Most investors warn against LETF's for amateur retail investors. But how can you Counter Argue `<link1>`, `<link2>`, `<link3>`, `<link4>`, `<link5>`?
