| 1. Do not alter headlines; copy and paste. |
The title of all submissions needs to match the article headline exactly. Copy and paste from the main headline only, do not include anything beyond the primary headline such as byliners, subtitles, flavor text, quotes from the article, news outlet, location, cross post tags, (video) tags, and so on. Do not use the “suggest title” option for posting as it often does not match the headline. As a matter of fairness, any submission with an altered title will be removed. |
| 2. Submit only if “Oniony”. |
Please consider submitting your article to /r/offbeat or similar subreddits unless it truly reads like The Onion wrote it. This can be highly subjective; you are encouraged to upvote articles that should be here and downvote those that should not. Moderators can also remove posts at their own discretion under this rule. |
| 3. Must be a news article. |
Submissions must be in the form of a news article. Videos are only allowed if they are accompanied by a complete text article. Editorials, blogs, twitter posts, image galleries, tabloid stories, youtube videos, meta posts, static images, and so forth will be removed. |
| 4. Use original, reliable sources. |
Find the source of your story before you submit it, simply by checking for references or googling the subject to locate the original piece. Websites that frequently re-host viral news stories or contain misleading information are on automatic removal. Blogs are not reliable sources. |
| 5. Do not repost similar articles. |
Check the sub for your story before you submit it; if it’s already here then please vote and comment there instead of posting another version. Similar stories will be removed and frequent re-posters will lose their posting privileges. Do not delete and repost your own submissions without approval. |
| 6. No satire articles. |
Even if they aren’t technically from “Not The Onion” any article submission written as satire or even true stories written in a satirical manner are not allowed. Please note that some major news outlets have satirical sections, such as the Borowitz Report on the New Yorker, which are also not allowed. Meanwhile, AVClub, while owned by The Onion, is not satire and is allowed. If you'd like, you can use a tool like http://realorsatire.com/ to see if your submission is from a known satirical website. |
| 7. No tabloid journalism. |
Do not post tabloid news stories, or articles that source from tabloid news outlets (TheSun, Mirror, Dailymail, People, TMZ, etc). |
| 8. No old news. |
Articles need to have been written within two weeks of its submission date. |
| 9. English articles only. |
Please do not post non-English articles. Do not use google translate for submission either; rather try to find an English version of the story by a secondary source. |
| 10. No mobile versions. |
If you’re using a mobile device to post a story make sure you remove any mobile identifiers (typically “.m” or “mobile”) from the url before submitting. |
| 11. No blocked or redirected links. |
Please ensure you aren’t submitting a link that utilizes a paywall or survey wall (Telegraph.co.uk, Independent.co.uk) in order gain access to the complete article. Do not submit links that redirect you to another site to read the article and do not submit using link shorteners either. |
