Great! Send me your opendesktop.org user ID (the number in the URL if your profile page) and we'll get you set up as moderator. > Specifically I'd like to ensure that only content of decent quality and > of actual worth to the user are available in the store, e.g. by > suggesting/requesting changes to the author. We are not curators in that sense, that is what the voting system is for. Of course, we can certainly give comments to the authors, just like any other community member, but being a moderator does /not/ give us any right to think our view on the fluffier concepts is any more worthy than others (as Scott also comments on). The only quality note which this moderation is supposed to be for is technical quality. Say, for example, an item is in fact an icon theme, but isn't packaged in a way that Plasma can consume - that is still an icon theme and should stay downloadable from the website, but it makes no sense to see it in the Get New Icon Themes dialogue, and so we can mark it as excluded from GHNS. This is also, of course, why we need both guidelines and instructions for moderators, so we can avoid confusion about responsibilities and whatnot :) > Cheers > > Nicolas > > On 16.07.2018 11:39, Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen wrote: > > Hello chums :) > > > > One of the challenges of having a library of resources is to maintain > > it > > > > clean of spam and in general any content that doesn't comply with what we > > want to have there. > > > > The software running store.kde.org recently gained the possibility to > > have a> > > group of people who can moderate contents and reviews. > > > > This is a call for action for those of you would like to contribute to > > KDE > > > > by helping to make sure our users have the best resources selection > > available, free of worry to find undesired contents. > > > > Please reply if you'd like to help, either with the store as a whole, > > or > > > > even just a specific category, and we will see together what's the best > > way to proceed. > > > > Thank you! :D -- ..dan / leinir.. http://leinir.dk/
