   Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] Fwd: [Wikimedia-in-mum] Liam Wyatt's visit
to Mumbai and GLAM meetup - a summary

Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.

The reason it is being held:

   Post by non-member to a members-only list

Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive
notification of the moderator's decision.  If you would like to cancel
this posting, please visit the following URL:

Hi all,
 This is a query about the moderation affair and sorry for making
another thread for the same. I get this message and get these kind of
messages when I'm posting to the mailing list . The same logic should
be applied to all suspected vandals,trolls etc. as some automated
intelligence (some filter/some bot) is there which does this work.

Couldn't that be configured to send notices to the member stating that
the message is suspected to be of 'x' nature (define x = troll,vandal
whatever the filter/bot suspects it for) and moderator would do it.

If this is in the current work-flow then I do not know what the whole
'hoopla' is all about. If its not, then of course it needs to be
implemented.

I can share some part of the plug mailing list
http://www.plug.org.in/mailing-list/  where the same thing things and
I do get an automated message when my message gets moderated. This
happens instantly.

When the message is rejected, I do get a mail from the mailing list
listing the reason/s for the mail being rejected.

Then obviously I re-do the mail so its doesn't contravene whatever
reason they said or/and publish the same mail to some other mailing
list as well.

Lastly, if nothing of the above strategies work then I have my blog to
fall back on and do a 'Public letter' kinda thing.

Needless to say, till date haven't had to go that far.
