Here: [Using a template file to capture/create citar-org-roam notes](https://org-roam.discourse.group/t/using-a-template-file-to-capture-create-citar-org-roam-notes/3198)  
I genuinely don’t understand. The message said the community noted it as Spam/promotional, when I all I did was link to a GitHub issue with a previous discussion for some context. The GitHub repo is for an `org-roam` based package – is that not allowed?

It feels like some sort of system glitch?  
Initially I thought someone accidentally touched the flag button. But if so many posts are flagged like this, I don’t think they were human errors…

I have had links to GitHub repos with no problem, so it’s nothing about what you do.
