Hi All!
I am getting a lot os questions from new groups on how to open and manage a healthy group on our discourse.
Currently we have these guide (Thank you @Stephen!) -How to Request a new Local Group , set up a category guide and this - Local Groups pilot
Who can help me to tidy this up a bit and add some more information about this, for example, tips for moderators?
I can fill in details about how to manage the groups, add badges, etc as they exist here: Open Knowledge Forums
Here’s some suggestions from Discourse.
And some of my own…
Fill out your profile.
Introduce yourself by replying at the bottom this topic.
Welcome new members by 
liking their introduction. This earns you a [badge]
(Open Knowledge Forums) (collect them all!).
Don’t worry if you make a mistake, you can edit your post or move it to another category.
If you get stuck, ask for help. We’re a friendly bunch.
If you think people may read your post the wrong way, add one of the many emoticons 
by typing something like :smile: or pressing the happy face button in the toolbar
spam so moderators can delete it and block the user.
Seed your category with some questions. Even if you think you know the answer, you may be surprised at the ideas a diverse community can generate.
