You you you ... INDEX Nazi!LOL!
1 - The Google-bots LOVE multiple links.
Indexing helped to get this thread into the TOP TEN hits of a Goole search for for this article's title.2 - As an amateur "FR historian," I really appreciate the value of finding related threads --- many months after they were posted.
This is done MUCH more easily when the news is still NEW.3 - If an article is good enough to post repeatedly, it ought to be good enough that folks would want to read ALL of the comments posted here on ALL of the threads about it.
Plus, multiple re-posting dilutes the "critical mass" of SYNERGISTIC posts, each building on the previous comments -- unless posters know that there are other, similar threads.4 - Someday, perhaps, FR will add a SEARCH requirement to the thread posting software, to REQUIRE us to search for previous threads with the same (or similar) thread title, before posting it AGAIN.
Until then, SOMEONE has to enforce a little "thread discipline" around here. ;o)FWIW, the Moderators used to DELETE multiple re-postings of the same article.
