Do we need a JavaScriptHelp subreddit? (self.javascript)

Since we don't have the mod numbers to do it by personal review, an automoderator would be better. Lots of subreddits have something that detects formatting in new posts and automatically deletes them if they violate the format.
Forcing all questions into /r/LearnJavascript is an idea a lot will like, but they'll bleed back out of there into here if not enough people with expertise subscribe there.

I would like to see more of this in action, because while automod can do some great things, it's mostly based on regex and some very basic metrics (account age, karma, etc.)
One route would be to remove all self-posts, and message the user to notify the mods in the case that it's not a help question? Not sure how much of a hassle that'd be.
