Add Moderation Policy #6

IamLizu · 2024-11-03T07:04:33Z

As discussed in GitHub issue #270, this pull request presents a draft of the Moderation Policy for the expressjs, jshttp, and pillarjs GitHub organizations. This draft is largely based on the Node.js Moderation Policy, as most of its provisions are deemed suitable for the our organizations.

While the entire document is open for review, I request particular attention to the following items,

The scope of this moderation policy mentions only the GitHub organizations unlike Nodejs, as they have Slack and other communities in scope.
Following Nodejs, I have kept the process of requesting moderation via email, and suggested an example email address as report@expressjs.com.
- If we decide to not have this approach, we can simply remove the relevant parts of this process.
- Otherwise, a mailbox creation is suggested.
expressjs/moderation repository should be the home for discussing things related to moderation and a place for moderation requests.
- If we have the repository, all collaborators should be added.
- Otherwise, suggesting to create the repository.
- A label moderation-review to escalate issues
I have added a Requirements section in addition to the existing process of being a Moderator as mentioned in Nodejs model,
- Must be a Collaborator in the expressjs GitHub organization.
- Active participation in the expressjs/moderation repository.
- Show a commitment to the expressjs Code of Conduct.

Okay, I will wait for further suggestions from others as well and then do a batch-update.

IMO We will need to wait until we have that email alias ready before landing this PR.

Sure.

That brings the question, will everyone at Moderation team have access to that mailbox?

What is the plan regarding that?

We need to work with the CPC on this. We have some emails setup, but I think we need to do some administrative work before we can use them.

converting to draft, and would like to discuss this with the TC before moving forward

Hi @CBID2 👋

Thanks for the suggestion. The formatting change does look good. However, this would require changing the link markup from [][] to []().

If you could make this change, I could commit the suggestion.

Not dropping the approve yet, but I think this is GREAT. I want to spend a bit more time reading it and also comparing to some others in the ecosystem. I will also see if we can get some folks experienced in moderation to help review.

+This policy applies to all repositories under these GitHub organizations: expressjs, jshttp, and pillarjs, as well as all Working Groups.
+
+Any posts, comments, issues, or pull requests that violate the [Code of Conduct][] are subject to Moderation as defined in this policy.


This policy also needs to apply to any project run comms: slack, discord, socials (the ones on behalf of the project, not personal), etc. Not just githbu.

Typically, if one's personal presence anywhere also mentions that you're involved in the project, that makes it an applicable space. iow, if your twitter bio says "express.js contributor", then the policy applies to your tweets.

TIL. Thanks for that. We should then be very explicit in the wording here.

Alright, revising that.

github's "edits" feature already documents who made the edit and what change was made; only the "why" wouldn't be included.

Should we record the why in a private space?

i assume that would be the moderation repo. but also i think this will either create a lot of useless noise, or will prevent a lot of helpful corrections, because the "why" will likely be pretty apparent.

Rephrasing it to include only why.
