Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Authors commonly disclose connections to their projects (e.g., “Disclosure: my own project”); frame posts as requests for feedback or research contributions rather than pure advertising.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: discussion, showcase, question
Write a clear, slightly academic headline (often a question or problem statement). Use first-person for projects/experiments, long-form post body with technical detail and reproducible methods. Tone: constructive, precise, collegial. Posts that request feedback, explain methods, or share open-source/nonprofit tools get upvoted; blunt marketing or low-effort promos are unwelcome.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/digitalhumanities's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
