Moderation log

Every moderation action taken on SynC Standards is written to an append-only log at the moment it happens, in the same database transaction as the action itself. This page is that log. It is public and requires no account, and the entries below are the complete record for the library — nothing is filtered out by editorial judgement.

Each entry states five things and only five things: what was done, when, the reason category chosen from a fixed list, which standard it was done to while that standard is still published, and, where the action is a revocation, the revocation level — 1 or 2. The actor is recorded as SynC, the platform, because moderation is a platform act. Where an action concerns particular clauses, the entry states how many and their positions in the adopted revision's numbering — the same slots the revision's page already marks as withheld — and never their text.

Four things are deliberately never published here: the individual moderator, anyone who reported the content, the free-text note a moderator may attach to an action, and the removed content itself. Reason categories are published as categories and are not elaborated on — an entry reading Other stays Other. Where an action follows a copyright notice, the entry says a notice was received; that is a statement about process and is not a finding that anyone infringed anything.

When a standard has been archived, its entry appears here without naming it. The fact of the removal is disclosed; the identity of removed content is not re-published on the page that announces its removal.
