View submission: An important update on post requirements

Could you consider have custom text posts that allows us to specify up to X number of fields that we request a user to fill out?

For example, r/AskVet requests posters include the following items:

• Species:
• Age:
• Sex/Neuter status:
• Breed:
• Body weight:
• History:
• Clinical signs:
• Duration:
• Your general location:
• Links to any test results, X-rays, vet reports etc. that you have:

As an idea, have the post form automatically sub divide a number of named text entry boxes for each of those items. They can under the hood automatically be joined into a single text post. It might be nice to force them to at least have to tab through or deliberately ignore certain fields.

This would be fantastic!

Even just having a preset form that loads in when they go to submit would be a big improvement.
