Generating a form response interface in an online application

A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computing device to cause the computing device to:

• identify a content post in an online application interface;
• facilitate evaluation of the content post, wherein facilitating evaluation of the content post comprises:
• identifying associated comments submitted in response to the content post;
• upon determining that a first designated threshold number of the associated comments exist, sending language of the associated comments to a natural language processing application;
• and
• upon determining, via the natural language processing application, that a second designated threshold number of the associated comments exist that include common language elements capable of being expressed via multiple predefined options, marking the content post as form-addressable, wherein common language elements are identified by iteratively comparing language among the associated comments;
• and
• 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
• update the online application interface to display the form response interface element and the statistics with the content post.
