I think paywalled links are reasonable since one should be able to ask for money for their work/efforts, though it would be helpful to disclose the fact somehow

I think paywalled links are reasonable since one should be able to ask for money for their work/efforts, though it would be helpful to disclose the fact somehow, to save a click for those uninterested in that media format?
For example, we already have suggestions for videos and PDFs in the guidelines:
> If you submit a video or pdf, please warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title.
Of course, I'm not sure what a name for that tag might be, [paid link] or [paywall], though those might have negative connotations. Just a thought.
Edit: dang also linked the FAQ and previous discussion of paywalls above, it seems a solved question.
