First of all the name could do with some better ideas I think it's a bit clunky.
But anyway, this was spawned by a Discord discussion where it was determined that we don't have an "inviting" way (for lack of a better word) for users with a private problem to come forth with said problem. Discuss. Toomai Glittershine The Yoshi 23:54, March 8, 2021 (EST)
- I really like this. A system like this would streamline the process for any person who has a concern or complaint about someone else. I have no input to give on the page itself or the title - both look fine to me. Black Vulpine of the 🦊Furry Nation🐺. Furries make the internets go! :3 03:06, March 9, 2021 (EST)
It certainly seems like a good idea, in principle, to have a process of dealing with these issues. That being said though, I am somewhat concerned about how certain aspects of this could be applied. For example: could this, in theory, be used to police good-faith SmashWiki users off-site, such as for comments that a user may disagree with (but aren't actually cases of harassment or discrimination)? We don't want to create a situation in which users constantly feel like they're being patrolled, even when off-wiki, do we? Again, I agree with this in principle, but I think it's important that great care and discretion is taken when handling user concerns. Alex the Weeb 13:46, March 9, 2021 (EST)
- That's a fair point, but I don't think anyone is going to oppose banning a person who is openly discriminatory or intends to do harm to the wiki or a user. If a user is wary of what they're posting then maybe what they're doing probably isn't a good thing. Señor Mexicano (talk) 13:49, March 9, 2021 (EST)
