So, if the SE sites discourage link-and-run (or rather, encourage down-voting of LAR answers), why isn't this in the FAQ?

Earlier Meta discussions, showing that LAR is discouraged. Statistics: Current Ratio of "Link-And-Run" on the Stack Exchange Network

Example of me assuming that such was in the FAQ, and now looking like a jerk (possibly because I'm a jerk.)

Publish jpg file as a ScreenSaver via GPO

Edit - I'm a silly man. This is actually in the FAQ, but you have to expand one of the answers. https://serverfault.com/faq#deletion
