    upon determining that the content post is form-addressable based on the evaluation;

    generate a form response interface element including multiple alternatives that respectively correspond to multiple user-selectable options for response to the content post, and generate statistics based on each of the multiple alternatives, wherein the statistics include a vote tally indicating a number of votes received for each of the multiple alternatives via the form response interface element from one or more users; and
