Currently, karma from submissions and comments is counted towards the monthly moons distribution regardless of whether the moderators removed them or not. The reason for this stems back to when the community use to have an event called Weekend Memes. The intention was to count karma even though all meme posts were removed on Sunday at midnight when Weekend Memes ended.
Since Weekend Memes was discontinued several months ago, that concern is no longer valid today. It makes logical sense to only award moons to content which does not break our rules, eg content which isn't duplicated or a rehashed to farm moons. If the act of breaking the rules means you get rewarded, then why have rules in the first place?
In this poll, I propose not awarding moons to removed content, whether it is a submission or a comment. If a submission is removed, the comment section will be spared. Deleted content will not be affected.
Since this poll is a second attempt to approve this rule change and all polls these days are not reaching quorum, the mods are going to try a more aggressive strategy for drawing out vote participation. We are going to pin a link to this poll in several of the upcoming Daily Discussion threads. If it still doesn't reach quorum by the last day, then we will try pinning links in additional posts on the top page.
EDIT: Fixed link to prior poll.
EDIT2: Just to clarify, we're going give this treatment to future polls as well. Polls will be linked in the Daily Discussion thread and the second sticky slot will be used if it's available. As I stated above, it's becoming increasingly difficult for polls to reach quorum. This may be because more moons go into circulation every month. We might have to fix this growing problem in a future poll.
EDIT3: Formatting.
