A while back Theymos made a thread about cleaning up Politics & Society, which was a very good call IMO.
Another section that is in desperate need of a thorough clean-up would be 'Altcoin Discussion'.
Most of the threads there would basically need to get moved to 'Speculation (Altcoins)'.
Why?Description of 'Speculation (Altcoins)' in the
Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQSpeculation (Altcoins) - Discussion about altcoin prices. This includes discussion about portfolios ("what altcoins are you holding?"), price predictions ("is coin X going to reach 10$ next week?" or "why is this coin's price so low?") and general speculation ("are the altcoin markets crashing?").
I'd say that most of the threads in Altcoin Discussion are actually speculation threads or topics related to asking about people's portfolio.
I'm personally going to spend some time reporting the threads that need to be either moved to another section or threads that are just of low quality.
Maybe some other members can join the effort. It's time for a good spring cleaning, so if you live in the northern hemisphere, now is the perfect time for that!
Just a screenshot to illustrate my point (please don't quote the image):
