Public incident posts that people actually finish reading
The template we use internally:
- What members saw.
- What was actually down (API, search, or uploads).
- When it started and ended in UTC.
- What we changed.
- What we will not speculate about.
The Announcement template can rank as news. That is a feature and a responsibility. Happy to share a filled example if useful.

Posted a Guide recap of this thread so we are not asking people to mine comments.
