Reddit Posts & Comments
Only transcribe karma points and awards if it's referenced or relevant to the post (for example, a person says "Wow, thanks for all of the awards", or comment about the number of votes). If there are a lot of awards and you don't know what they are called, add the number of awards instead (ex. 5 Reddit awards, 2 gold, 1 silver or 8 awards)
Special Notes
-
If any details are missing, just state that it is Unknown Post/Redditor/Subreddit. You can also use the color of the redaction as the name if they are unique colors for each user.
-
Do not write u/Redacted, u/Username, etc. in your transcription – these are usernames of actual Redditors, and will cause your transcription to be automatically removed from certain subs that do not allow personal information. If usernames are redacted, "User 1/2/3" can be used as "names" in bold starting with the first redacted name.
-
"User Reports" should go underneath whatever is being reported (directly under the post or directly under the comment if the comment was reported).
-
When you have to write subreddit or user names in the body of the post or comment, place a backslash before the first forward slash in order to avoid mentioning or linking to the user or subreddit. For example:
**\/r/TranscribersOfReddit**
**\/u/username**
becomes
/r/TranscribersOfReddit
/u/username

Try to keep the comments nested the same way as the image shows. For each new nesting level, add another >. If usernames are visible in the post, make sure to replace User 1 etc. with the user's username.
