This subreddit will now be for international politics, not just US politics

Look. I'm an Aussie, and I've been a moderator of this subreddit for some years now. And frankly, it's just boring. It's the same people doing the same things every day, and if reddit is the front page of the internet, then I think we need to spice things up a bit.

As the top mod of /r/politics, I am making the executive decision to change one of the major rules of the subreddit.

/r/politics will now be a subreddit for international politics. Any non-US political articles may be posted as long as [International] is included in the title.

All of the other subreddit rules will still apply, including the Title rules and the Out of Date rule. These can be read in the sidebar or in the wiki. There will of course be some exceptions:

To reflect the new international nature of this subreddit, articles will no longer have to be written in English. Some articles may not have translations, and users may use their browser's translate feature to read these articles.
We will also be suspending the whitelist temporarily, so that we may review domains and create a new international whitelist that is much more accommodating to worldwide news.

This is a big change, but it's well overdue in my opinion. I'm going to start posting Australian political posts to show you how it's done, and the other international mods on the team should do the same with their respective countries.

We'll have to get a lot more mods to cover the new international content because this mod team sucks. We'll recruit a lot more foreign mods in the weeks coming now. You can find our mod application form here.
