>>307476I would make it /his/ - World History & Humanities
>>307498Don't make a rule against it, but don't encourage it either. Let the users post freely and see what happens as long as it's arguably on topic. I don't see a problem with it, and I don't know why anyone else would either, it's not like /pol/ has a problem with politically relevant anime, nor /k/ a problem with weapons related anime, so naturally it should be just fine.
>>307448No, what I would do for /his/ rules is make a clear cutoff date between current events, which would go in /pol/, and historical events, which would go in /his/.
I would say something like, all historical materials that occurred prior to 25 years ago go into /his/, and anything after that goes into /pol/, that way you have a rolling counter for what /his/ material is and it can keep updating itself every year and new topics slide into /his/ jurisdiction.
So, for this method, everything prior to 1990 would go into /his/, and then in 2016 it would change to 1991, and so on and so forth.
Maybe make a rule that if someone dies then yeah they become /his/ material after a few years, but you also need to make a distinction for dead political figures and systems that will be able to cross post to both /pol/ and /his/, since they'd be acceptable in both boards. I don't want to see Hitler, JFK, Stalin, and the like relegated to /his/ just because they're dead, since the topic overlaps quite clearly.
Just tell the moderation to take it easy and not go crazy moderating anything that could fall into both /pol/ and /his/, because most likely it will figure itself out after a little while.
