Team Role and Remit
The team undertakes a variety of tasks concerned with running our central Freegle discussion group. They work within guidelines outlined in Discourse Support Team Remit.
Moderation
March 2014 [[2]]
To keep Central a friendly and supportive place for all volunteers we should:
- state a minimum number of mods to be involved in the mod team (5) that do the work involved in the running of the group
- run a regular survey to include feedback for why people have joined or left, why they would choose special notices and whether the moderation in place is acceptable
- apply a very light touch moderation process only, with the priority to keep Central as unmoderated as possible
- only use moderation when messages are abusive, overtly aggressive or threatening
Moderation process:
- the Central mods team have responsibility for moderation on the group
- allow the Discourse Support Team to act in 'emergencies' to put a member on 'moderation' in line with their remit.
