Couldn't you abbreviate - "CDS" to tag instead of "Current Developing Stories"??

I like this idea a lot, but have 1 question.How are you going to screen the stories, to make sure the content is true, real, reliable & not propaganda? Just curious....

This is one of the reasons we are sticking with only a few Developing Stories at a time. Any of the changes made will be monitored closely, and we will double check the updates as they post.

Voted up. I posted at the link, but I guess I will post here too...
I think this is an interesting idea. I cannot help but wonder if ’scoops’, which I think will happen often, will introduce a challenge for viewers to keep up with a story. Just a thought. - 2 years ago

I cant post because a mini advertisement is covering the submit button and I cant move the window. Also can't find 'developing stories' in my group add to list

I've been having problems with this as well...
I found that if you click on your profile, and then "Post A Story" from your profile page, it should work just fine.

@ThoughtNu - Sorry for the confusion, we add stories to the group when we select them. Feel free to pitch stories for consideration on this thread if you'd like.

So what do I as a user actually do with a developing story? Do I add updates to the comments section or add it to the body of the story?

Nettle:
@Nettle - If you're the original poster, update in the body/description/headline, copy and paste old updates into comments to archive, and discuss as you normally would in the comments.
If you're looking to "scoop" the story away from the original poster, read the section on the blog post re: scooping.If you're just looking to comment and discuss, then nothing changes.
