I have hidden the worst thread I saw (I'm on vacation still but felt it was pretty bad) as well as a couple of the stupid comments.
I also think leaving a comment as Wikipedia warning the user who made the thread I hid would be good. I got a 2nd opinion from Philippe (no one else was responding) but am going to wait for 20 minutes before I post. Will go ahead and do so if I don't hear anything to the contrary. What I plan to post is below (this is in response to their latest post in the thread about how you have to respect other peoples opinion, I don't have to accept your opinion that someone is a 'disgusting beast' on our page, no) : You are welcome to have your opinions Kitty, however you are not welcome to > say something like that here. This thread has been hidden (it is still > visible to you and your friends), I am happy to delete it if you'd prefer. > Further comments along these lines however will cause you to be banned from > further discussion on Wikipedia posts. I'm not against having a more formal safe spaces policy that we post on the facebook page (we can't moderate Twitter much, we can google+ though I think? at least on our board). I would prefer we have a light hand, but these comments were not borderline.
