Finish Add/Submit Functionality for Adding an Article to a Collection

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Rules:

  • Owner of collection can add articles directly
  • Follower of collection can submit article, then owner can approve to add it to the collection
    • enforce rule that user can only submit his/her own articles?
    • alternative: submitter only needs to be a follower of the collection
      • this could be a good thing for discovery -- lets followers suggest other articles that should be in collection, not just their own

Easier add/submit: HEAD request to retrieve header data from the article url (title, description, date, author, etc.)

  • adding/submitting an article could then be as easy as pasting in the url
  • this also opens up the possibility of a userscript / browser extension to do it directly from the medium article (submit this article to a collection on extra medium)
