A lot of this, if not all, you can do with filters and custom CSS.

Wouldnt impact the entire board, which is needed.

>remove humanities
This.
But the rest would be dumb.
If you want something like that then go to a slower imageboard.
>>366205
Why? Not every board benefits from being an ocean of piss. /biz/ is a prime fucking example of wasted potential.
heated criticism wont go away with some standards, as long as there is limited censoreship itll keep that 4chan flavor
>>366197
jeez if only /news/ had such standards

I like the idea, but not the execution. What if I want to cite to a book? I give a name and an author and an edition and a page. I get lightlisted because it's not in a link that the computer can recognize?

>remove humanities
ok
>if a post doesnt contain at least two sources from approved sites it has a lighter color
impractical and not that great 2bh
>posts under 150 words default to being minimized.
this kills every possibility of having fun on /his/ tho
>post with 2+ approved citations are a darker colour
le ebin upvotes? New frontiers for the shitposting market?
I think humanities should be folded into /lit/ since there's so much crossover. Discussing Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, or the fiction Camus wrote without touching on the philosophical underpinnings would be a shame.
why don't the mods just send every thread to you so you can approve it before it's posted?
>>366197
>people were worried /his/ would be /pol/ with dates
>/his/ turned out to be /lit/ with dates
>>367377
everyone was paranoid about any /pol/ spillover so alot of politically charged history threads were met with derision and shitposting. Thus the pendulum swung the other way towards the humanities rather than general history
>>366197
I haven't been on there for like 3 weeks but I liked it when I was there. Has the history to philosophy ratio gone too low or something?
Why not just make it a geography, history, philosophy board? The OG social sciences/humanities.
>>366197
I'm going to go to /his/ and start a humanities thread just for you, OP.

>if a post doesnt contain at least two sources from approved sites it has a lighter color
>approved sites
While you're well intentioned, you know this would devolve into petty arguments over sources and a whole bunch of circlejerking over "muh light post" and "muh dark post" shit. It would create more problems than it solved.
