Hi all,

Maybe it's time to revise (in a very low key way) our ed policy. For instance this may be a wise thing to put in:

- Posts which are obviously incorrect or misleading. This includes attempts to spread disinformation or to impersonate another individual.

I really like the Melbourne ed pol:

Probs requiring notification:

- Posts the author has requested hidden.
- Posts which are obviously incorrect or misleading. This includes attempts to spread disinformation or to impersonate another individual.
- Posts that incite violence against disempowered members of the community
- Posts which use language, imagery, or other forms of communication whose sole purpose is to promote racism, fascism, xenophobia, homophobia, sexism, able-ism, ageism or any other form of discrimination.
- Persistent nuisance posts to the newswire or comments sections.
- Posts that are deemed to be devoid of content or analysis and appear to be published with the sole purpose of disruption.

What do ppl think about this? We do need a process doc first though eh.
