The link you really want to give is:

http://digg.com/linux_unix/The_Countdown_to_Fedora_11_Begins

The one you gave takes you to the story without any referral back to digg.com

There should be a digg bar on top of the story that lets you digg it and 
also go to the main digg page if you want.

hi,

Recently Rahul and Paul had discussed what they could do to
rectify/clarify erronous data that articles over the internet publish. I
had thought up something and just made a draft page for you folks to
see.I've added a few entries just as a demo. The page will be open
(obviously).

Please comment/discuss the page, and if okay, we can use it.[1]

I think your heart's definitely in the right place, Ankur!  But I'd
worry this page in its current state would quickly grow out of
control, given the number of articles that pop up over even just one
development cycle.

What if the page used a simple queue system?

Each article could include a very small amount of information in a
table:

* Hyperlink to the article

* Comment by someone on the Marketing team who has seen it, noting a
  questionable section

Also, the page would include general guidelines on how to make
corrections.  Once corrections are made, the correcting person could
strike the row from the table, so at any time it only shows the
current state of the queue.

hi,

Rahul just directed me to the actual press archives that are already
being maintained.. This page could **only be about the articles that
need corrections**.. 

The queue system sounds perfect to me.. I could make the tables but
someone will please have to do the guidelines part etc.. I'm really not
qualified enough for that.. :)

Should i move the page to "article corrections" ?? Please suggest a
name.

We will need to publicize this page so people know they are supposed to
refer to it before absorbing data that floats around (check up if its
correct or not).. 

regards,

Ankur

Modify it completely

"Media Watch"

"Against Disinformation"

The page maintainer can send mails to relevant lists and blog about it.

Look for a 'Fedora Myths' page

This is an awful lot of weight for what should be a simple queue.  If
we want a ticketing system for this, that's fine too; but the more
requirements that are added onto this simple listing, the less likely
that people will maintain it.
