How should I ask a moderator before sharing a Ledger link?

Use before posting in guarded groups, pages, forums, or communities.

SHORT ANSWER

Ask plainly before posting. Say that the Ledger is a public-record source map, disclose your relationship if you publish or run it, name the exact reader question the link answers, and offer a no-link summary if outside links are not allowed.

When to use this link

  • Best before posting in groups with link rules.
  • Turns a possible spam signal into a permission check.
  • Keeps disclosure and one-link restraint attached.
