The article system is good for long or detailed information, but for code snippets and lists, maybe another system would work better.
I guess once the karama system gets used we should be able to filter on that, but maybe something similar to the hearts on articles, we could apply to interesting posts. These could be approved before being accepted. Then have a page which shows the ‘stared’ post’s along with a link back to the thread.
Just an Idea.
