Post History

I'd actually love the idea of having such a policy when it comes to homework questions. We could start off though with how SE could deal with such homework questions, apart from closing them and deletion of dumps.

Here's my draft of such policy:

> # Homework guidance
> If you're willing to ask a question that's your homework, please do the following before posting:
> - **Re-address your question by specifying the actual problem you're facing.** This helps others to answer your question.
> - **At least try solving it yourself.** This is a huge role when it comes to these. If you decided to post the question without trying to solve it, then it would end up being subjected to getting closed, or worse, deleted. Show what you've tried as it is proof you have tried answering it.
> - **State all the specifics.** To be able to solve a question, you need to identify the key factors on what the problem could be or why it happens. State all the descriptions of the question you're trying to answer by adding the topics you're learning, adding additional info that's crucial to the question, and other helpful additions.

That's all that I'd do for now, but these are a good start on the policy. If a new user joins the network, they can be greeted with a message asking if they're a student so we could send them to the policy link by a new tab, I suppose. Though this could be a bit of a problem to handle, as it is indeed likely for the students to simply ignore the message and ask right away.

I have a solution for this. Let's say we warn them that next time they ask a question, they might want to read the policy. Again, they might ignore it, so we might as well invite them to the [chat](https://discord.gg/bv2aaGa) so we can tell them about it and hope they'd understand (I was about to say listen. lol).

**Note**: This is only the beginning on how we can stage such policy, and we can go further once the devs can take care of the situation alongside us.
