Yup. You're basically right, clarification on "anything":

Not the celestial body you're on (that's called night)
Not a structure on the celestial body you're on (that's called being in the shadow)
Not an object with too small angular size to cause much dimming, such as Venus or the ISS (that's called a solar transit)

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
