Some of our early communities did bulk imports (with varying rules), and I and many others have now concluded that this was a mistake. That's my fault, and I'm sorry about it. *Targeted* imports can still work maybe, but if something was all yours to begin with, or you can make it all yours here (for example by posting a new question that you have a good answer for), than I think it's much better to do that. Build *this* community; don't direct readers to Somewhere Else. Also, the scope here is probably different than over there, so you'd need to examine each candidate anyway. Please do improve things that you bring over, where you can. You might have learned some additional things since you wrote what you did; can you make the versions here *better*? In addition to serving this community by providing high-quality content, you avoid the pure copies that can impede search-engine placement.
