A bug is a disparity between promise and performance. Promise is often best demonstrated by a link to the relevant section of the docs. Doc patches should also contain a such a link.

Why not simply embargo any post with an off-site link? Tho there might have been some, I can't remember a single example of such at SF. Anybody posting such could certainly understand "Because this post contains an off-site link, it will be embargoed until reviewed to ensure that it is legitimate." | Or you could provide a preview containing the first two non-empty lines | not containing an URL. | This *would* be inconvenient for large attachments and other | data where the reporter prefers to provide an URL rather than the | literal data, but OTOH only people who indicate they really want to | see spam would see it. ;-) I don't get this, but it sounds like more work than simple embargo. I think html attachments should also be embargoed (I believe this is what I saw a couple of months ago.) And perhaps the account uploading an html file.
