r/ireland

Can you post your project here?

Self-promotion is generally banned, especially for businesses or crafts. Original content can be posted twice weekly with at least three days between submissions. Fundraising, surveys, and selling goods or services are not permitted.

Before you post: Rule 12 explicitly prohibits promotion, solicitation, fundraising, surveys, petitions, or excessive original content, and states that users may not participate solely to promote work/business/craft. Selling or buying goods/services is also banned.

The rules, in their words

1. All posts should be related to Ireland: The topic of this subreddit is Ireland. All posts should be directly related to Ireland; Irish people, news, sports, events, or culture. Posts which do not meet these criteria or which relate to Ireland only in passing may be removed.
2. Be civil — do not post abuse or hate speech: Any posts or comments that attack, threaten or insult a person or group; on areas including — but not limited to — national origin, ethnicity, colour, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, social prejudice, and disability may be removed. Multiple instances of abuse may result in temporary bans. Major/directed abuse may result in immediate bans. There is a zero tolerance policy for the promotion or suggestion of violence against others.
3. Do not post low-effort content: Posts which are deemed substandard or repetitive may be removed to maintain subreddit quality. Text posts, blog link posts, or newspaper reader opinion articles containing items designed to provoke ire — such as contentious questions, hot takes, shitposts, blatant and known misinformation or PSAs — are explicitly considered low-effort. Short questions and advice requests should be posted on r/AskIreland. All AI-generated content is explicitly considered low-effort.
4. Respect the privacy of other people: Posting of non-consenting explicit/sensitive media (inclusive of fight videos, public shaming, public freakouts etc.) is prohibited. Consent may not be garnered from individuals not of sound mind due to illness or intoxication. Doxxing in any form is not tolerated. No linking to personally identifiable social media accounts, or posting of photographs or other media of users without their consent.
5. No rumours or speculation on ongoing criminal cases or investigations: Do not post rumours or speculation on an ongoing criminal case or investigation, to the point where it may be argued that the dissemination of said rumours or speculation could unduly influence, or collapse the case or investigation. Articles posted by reputable news outlets may be posted without editorialisation — however, any comments made to further fuel any speculation on unsubstantiated, or otherwise non-reported issues will be subject to removal.
6. Do not engage in in-thread drama: Participating or instigating in-thread drama/flame wars is prohibited on the sub. If you have a problem with a thread or comment, report it AND [send a modmail](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=/r/ireland) — do not tag or otherwise directly involve moderators in the comment trees. We encourage discussion and debates, however we do not tolerate targeted abuse at other users. Personal attacks, inflammatory remarks, and baiting or bigoted comments are subject to removal.
7. Submit from reputable news outlets only: r/Ireland is not a source for driving views and clicks through hysteria and fabricated reporting. Tabloid/non-news source links will be removed. [A detailed list of examples may be found on this wiki page](https://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/wiki/reputable/) — this list is by no means exhaustive; please make an effort to review the content you're posting, and the integrity of the source.
8. Adhere to the political posting limits: As a general rule, political content outside of major newsworthy events (such as ongoing electoral news) should be limited to one post per day per user at most. Additionally, users should not post or comment on r/Ireland solely to promote a political agenda, e.g. only posting excessively right- or left-wing news stories, or trying to garner or organize support or funds for a cause or movement. Accounts suspected of participating solely to promote a political agenda may be actioned.
9. News should be reliably sourced, and titled accurately: [All news articles/content should be submitted as direct links; not contained within any self-text body, tweets, screenshots, archive websites etc.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/wiki/sourcing/) News should be submitted without any editorialisation of the title, except for unbiased clarifications within \[square brackets\]. [Copy/pasting of article text, or posting of links to websites designed to bypass paywalls is not allowed.](https://www.reddit.com/r/ireland/wiki/paywall/)
10. Do not submit duplicate news — search before posting: Please search before submitting recent news. Duplicates will be removed; favouring at time of removal the most reliable source, or the post with wider discussion. Alternate sources may be posted in the comments on the original news post. Exceptions apply for news articles with significant new/relevant information in the report not included in the original news link. If a megathread has been designated, **all** discussion and new articles must be posted in the comments there.
11. Tourism or visitation posts are more suitable elsewhere: All Tourism advice, questions on where to go/what to see/where to stay etc. should be directed to r/IrishTourism. All immigration advice, how to move to Ireland, where to move to in Ireland, questions about housing, jobs and taxes etc. should be directed to r/MoveToIreland. If you're planning to study in Ireland, please check out r/StudyInIreland.
12. No promotion, solicitation, fundraising, surveys, petitions, or excessive original content: You may not participate here solely to promote your work/business/craft. Original content may only be posted twice a week, with at least 3 full days between submissions. Fundraising, surveys, and petitions are not permitted. The buying or selling of any goods or services is not permitted. Ticket sales/trades should be directed to [Toutless](https://www.toutless.ie/). Supermarket rewards or discount barcodes should be directed to [Cardnado](https://cardnado.ie/index.html)
13. Respect your neighbours: Posts or comments used to direct, coordinate, or encourage interference in other communities and/or to target redditors/moderators for harassment are not allowed and will be removed. r/ireland is not the place for ranting about grievances with other subreddits. Crossposting discussions from other subreddits is permitted so long as it remains relevant to r/ireland while not breaking other rules.
14. Modmail is the only acceptable way to contact the moderators: For modding decisions, [modmail is the only acceptable way to contact the sub moderators](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=/r/ireland). Mod call-outs or tags in posts/comments — regardless of context — will be treated as in-thread drama. Chats/direct messages toward moderators will be ignored, and actioned as harassment. Meta-threads about modding decisions are permitted if they are written in the vein of constructive criticism.
