I flagged the article for this reason.

  You're being downvoted, but flagging (and/or emailing hn@ycombinator.com) is the moderator-sanctioned method of drawing their attention to a post.

    Didn't downvote but still disagree a lot. Flagging off otherwise interesting articles is seriously annoying IMO. I'd say commenting or upvote if there is already a comment (and maybe emailing if necessary) is the solution.

    True, but the site guidelines also say "If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did." https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

      Sorry. I commented to explain the reason for the flag. I wasn't sure it was obvious.
