[03:15:57] <Bytram> mrpg: what are you looking to submit? We have a few bots that can help with that.
[03:16:39] <Bytram> For good ideas on stories, or to find the one you want to submit and have an easy way to submit it, check out this page: https://wiki.soylentnews.org

[03:17:21] <Bytram> TO SUBMIT ONE OF THESE STORIES, TYPE "~arthur #" IN SOYLENTNEWS IRC, WHERE # IS THE ID FROM THE LIST BELOW.
[03:17:48] <Bytram> FWIW, it also often works if you submit the url instead of the id number
[03:18:23] <Bytram> here's an example:
